One of the best strategy games I've ever played

This game has greatly surprised me personally. As my friend has drawn attention to the game I was supposed clone of the CIV 5 not very convincing but when I read soften me try the game with him I became aware soon becomes clear that this game a lot more on the ball than you on the first glance might think.

Great strengths of the game:
- Numerous side fractions referring to the game impact (small towns within a province conquered, bribed or may be pacified by quest) this play through their bonuses a strong role in assimilation.
- The playable factions are very different from each other! Some groups do not need food to grow other can move their cities ...
- Polyphonic soundtrack, and pretty appearance

Weaknesses of the game:
- In multiplayer partly long waits when a player tries a conquest victory
- It's hard to find your way (in the beginning at least)
- Genre newcomers should definitely play the tutorial

All in all there is of me a strong buy recommendation if you're looking for a replacement and civilization may be the theme of the game fantasy.
