GI:This grand strategy titles scope is a historic achievement, asking players to lead ancient Rome or another of the eras powerful factions to hegemony through military force, diplomatic alliances, and the almighty power of money. For the sheer size that Rome II boasts, managing any empire larger than a medium-sized European country is a Herculean task. The spectacle of Roman legions clashing with barbarian hordes in real-time tactical battles is a sight to behold, but unchanging tactics and the occasional dramatic AI or pathfinding bug keep the combat layer from achieving its potential. As strong as Rome IIs bid for strategy greatness is, its lack of focus and tendency toward monotony stain its gleaming banners.
