What players say
85% of 34,167 reviews are positive · 85% of 406 in the last 30 days
Players praise the tactical depth, direct control of individual units, dynamic Conquest mode, and mod support. The most common complaints are unreliable friendly AI, enemy unit spam in Conquest, and a DLC model that locks factions and some units behind costly add-ons.
