It has wonderful graphics and a good story line but it is very slow and rebuilding everying for each stage is a pain.

A nice story and good graphics. The 3D engine really performs. The story lacks punch though and the AI is sometimes a little unfair, having high tech equipment before you have even got into your stride. The animation and detail is brilliant. Shades of Microsoft Empire series. Beautiful scenery and weather control that makes all the difference. But, as others have said, somewhat slow. Not having the ability to set way points makes it awkward at times and the ability to produce workers or military units and set them to a point on their completion would help the game progress a little faster. Having to wait at the source of production, Barracks or Keep etc and then move them to your assembly point really slows it down. Generally, I have enjoyed playing it and look forward to the next upgrade/series.
