Hmm,..not as good as Rome.

I guess this is kind of a hit or miss game and it depends on your taste I guess.You may like this,...you may not.I never seemed to get a very good grasp on it so of course that effected my enjoyment of it.The concept of playing the barbarians really appeals to me,but how it is handled really didn't.I really didn;t like how when you would settle a city it would like disband a good portion of your army at all and the fact that your guy pretty much didn't create any children when they weren't settled didn't really make any sense to me either.They should have at least made it so you could make camp on map like nomadic people do in the real world or something.Oh and the reason that is important that you have children by the way if you didn't fugure it out is that your general do age and die off eventually so if you have no children your tribe will have nobody to take the role of leader and your tribe will die out.
If you like Rome though and are looking for a new challenge,..a much bharder one I might add,..then go ahead and get this game.Like I said you may like it.
I would still reccomend it despite my personal issues with it.
