5 out of 5 stars Imperial Glory: Good Game overall   May 11, 2008
The pluses and negatives of this game depend on you as a player. If you like the rise of nations or age of empires sort of game where you collect raw materials and build armies that can defend your base...etc then this may not be for you. If you are a fan of the board game/pc game risk, then this is more up your alley. Much of the game works on a tactical level on a map of Europe, where you can build buildings, units and research technology in a turn based way. However when you go to war and attack an enemy territory, you can actually fight the battle with the armies you have created. I was very impressed with the battle mode for this game. I know other games like Total War get lots of hype but I think the battle mode is better in Imperial Glory than Total War. The movement is smooth and moving troops is easy. Also for those that like to mod, this game is not impossible to mod and can provide many added hours of fun when you edit the game files and see your changes happen. Bottom line is, if you like a fusion of army control and risk strategy you will like this game. 5 Stars for a British nut like me that loves the period it is set, but at least 4 stars for those that like and want a better version of risk.

If you like strategy games you'll love this one.

The campaign map is somewhat dull but the battle maps are realistic

A real plus is the realistic naval battles.

The interface of this game is rather confusing and the tutorial
is as always in these cases incomplete. For younger players this
design is probably not a great deal of fun.



5 out of 5 stars If you like strategy games, this one is for you.   February 17, 2006

The graphics are terrific, the concept is intelligent. Think Rome Total War at the time of Napolean. If you are a war enthusiast, this game is for you.
