'Fantasy Wars' is by far one of the greats for employing strategy in a fantasy universe. Not since the 'Lord of the Rings: Battle For Middle Earth' series of games has startegy and the use of turn based gameplay made an effective combination. The maps are enormous and require that the player makle decision tactically in ways that make the plaeyr feel that they are personally part of the action. With multiple camera angles and the ability to zoom in and out, it also gives the player a birds-eye look of the action happening within the battle, which can also be extremely helpful when planning your next move. Also, I love the many different upgrades that are available to you that are not often available in games of this type (ie armor piercing arrows, faster boots, armor upgrades, and upgrades to mobile units such as ballistas, etc). I have been a startegy-buff most of my life, and by far this game has been one of the most challenging that I have played since my C and C days. If your are into fantasy and love a challenge (even on Easy!) , then by far, 'Fantasy Wars' will be just the ticket for those sleepless nights when you want to either conquers the world or to save it from the forces of evil!
