Not as good as its predecessors
To start with the graphics where a bit too cartoony, the animation was good but I could not get a good feel of the characters, in Warcraft 2 fair enough that was cartoony but it ran on a 486 and was brilliant to play.
The main problem I find is how restricted you are when making units. With only 90 points to spend a few high priced units you have a small army which really looks pathetic. Secondly with such small amounts of men attacking more than one team is not fun, when they coordinate together well it becomes more of a slaughter then a fun multi player game.
The sounds are not as good as they where on Warcraft 2, many a time did I like to annoy my Peon by continually click on him.
To me this game was to much of a gimmick playing of its predecessor to raise sales. There are much better games out there if you fancy a strategy game; you can't beat C&C Generals.
My one word of advice would be try a demo or somebody else’s game before buying it, you may see it like I do, a big disappointment.
