Could've been a bit better.
The first being that the unit limit seems too low . It may be that the RTS's I play are usually more like Age of Empires or LOTRBFME. These games usually start with small skirmishes of 15-20 units. But towards the end you build MANY more units, sometimes hundreds. The problem with this game is that it starts ou like those two games, and stays that way the whole game. I understand that it each battle is supposed to be more of a skirmish instead of an all out war.
It also seems to be a bit TOO watered down in the economical are of the game, and again this is probably because I play too much Age of Empires.
Even though it is fun too guard your resource pads, they never run out of resources. You'll never have to move to another resource pad, and there is no "worker" type units, it's all soldiers. You NEVER have to actually build buildings, you just buy them.
Other than those two areas of the game it is great!
Casting unit "powers" is a lot easier than in something like Warcraft.
The squad sizes are perfect.
The space battles are really good, there are tons of different types of starfighter and spaceships. And the resource management fits well into space battles. I actually play WAY more space battles than land.
This game is more of a "starter" RTS (except for the campaign, which is fairly deep).
So if you're new to RTS's you should get this game, but if you've been playing them for a long time, don't.
