Great gaming with major flow no preset winning condition (like in civ).

I played this game ~10 hours and then out of a sudden I have lost. turn out however research a bloody spell and use it first win the game. This is damn, I won't to play till last man standing, but this game has no customized winning condition which make the strategy very difficult to tune... even if you played perfectly you still wind up loosing just like that... frustrating...
Beside that the game is Civ clone with touch out D&D which is kind of cool. lot's of enhancements and spell. but again, when playing in such mode you will almost use less than 10% of the spells. so as I wrote winning condition makes this game suck.
Also, there is no fine tune of the NPC action time, so if playing vs multiple enemies you will see all movements in regular motion.
I believe that if the game will overcome all the issues I have presented, which are quite easy to achieve this can be a great Civ clone game.
