It’s a good game but nowhere near the level of Med 2 Shogun 2 or Rome 2, (can we stop having units pull ladders out their pockets please)
If your outnumbered in a siege while Defending it is a lot harder to win due to the fact they can just whip ladders out and scale any wall, the truth behind the myth was a cool idea but in my opinion hasn’t worked too well.
Battles require a lot less flanking and tactics due to these unflankable and unbreakable units
The duels are a good return though (if only more then 1 hero could do them)
The stupidly bright colours make it look super unrealistic as well which is part of the fun of these games
Some of the battle maps are quite cool though
I’m not longer honestly sure if they care about making good games or just the money
