This game has what other RTS are missing, a good amount of ROL mixed inside. The graphics are excelent and very nice detailed; music is nice also and each audio track is unique. Al tho the sound is not so good since I found that some of the sounds are already used in other games.

The controls are very easy and it only takes a couple of tutorials to learn the interface and keyboard/mouse controls.
Once you get used to it you will be using mainly 5 buttons only:
Mouse right click to order movement, mouse right click (hold) for panning the view, TAB for selecting enemies and numbers from 1 to 3 for assigning and selecting groups (al tho you can create up to 10 groups)
