Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Well done and entertaining
Review: This game is better than most game magazines make it out to be. It is a very accessible strategy game. Battles are relatively involved, although one could argue that strategic depth is not really this game's strength. But that is probably what makes this game so entertaining and accessible for people who normally do not like stragety games.

I like the game's graphics. Not the greatest I've ever seen, but once again, they make the game very accessible. All the different types of troops are relatively easy to spot and tell appart. When some of the troops build things, such as bridges or towers, one can watch them do their work. Not truely great and innovative, but it certainly gets the job done.

So I have to say that I have been (and still am) very entertained by this game. At the same time, it isn't the best game ever made. Some of the controls are a bit weird, and sometimes, your troops will run into battle before you'd want them to.

Overall, a very good game. Well done, Pyro!

Summary: Best Tactical War game I own. Love it!
Review: This is an action packed game. Looks good. Exposes you to some Roman history. I love the scenerio where the Gauls are attacking the fort and you have to survival. That is hard as hell, I beat the Gauls once. Lots of fun. Wyatt Kaldenberg

Summary: Many sleepless nights later...
Review: This is an amazing game. The detail is super and the gameplay is straight forward and engaging. The level of control is not in the same level as Age of Empires or Warcraft - but if you're playing these kinds of games you really need not be concerned with farms and food and all that other Simcity kind of stuff. This game will give you what you're looking for - plenty of war, plenty of units and the quickest time into battle. If you've been around at the time of Broderbund's Ancient Art of War (1987-88) - you'll definitely like this game because it has many elements of that original game and amzing graphics to boot.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Better then you'd think
Review: With a lot of games in competition on the shelf, this game should stand out as one of the best. Hardly trying to conquer every genre along the way, it instead concentrates on the period when wars were fought with arrows and swords. This game can also be used as a teaching tool on how warfare was in the past, as well as how to plan battles based on superior numbers and superior strategy. If you like the whole concept of conquering towns, and recruiting soliders from that town to attack the next town, and need a slight break every once in awhile from resource management, this is the game for you.
