A slow but fun game for someone who does not like non-stop action. Helps you learn European history.

Better than expected.

I won this game by Kingdom Advantage. I can choose to continue on, but I already conquer half of Western Europe and decide to stop at this point.

In my opinion, this game deserves the five stars. I bought this game about two weeks ago, and have been playing on and off since then; actually more on than off - yes, it is additive. I played more on the strategy map than on the battle map. The following are a few of my notes. I hope the notes would get you to get on the game faster, but without giving out to much information that could take out the fun.

* There is more than one way to win this game. To win by military conquest, be prepare to spend lots of time and patient.
* The king has mortal life time but hire knights are not! There are consequences if a prince or princess married to a different kingdom. A kingdom heir does matter.
* Traders, Landlord and Builder (knights in your court) do help and work mostly in the back ground. Used them wisely will improve your game.
* Clergy (another knight) is a very interesting unit - I was confused when he became the pope and discovered that I have some control on most of Europe.
* Spy is also a very interesting unit. For example, I stumble on the pope kingdom. Despite the warning of my spy, I concentrated my force to take him out - one of my heaviest military conquest so far. I lost my best Marshal that helps me conquer almost half of Europe. The Spy helps me to win this battle. Enemy spies also caused me lots of trouble.
* Marshal is the most active knight. I like to see my Calvary Marshal (Marshal that is specialize on cavalry) running across Europe. Seize Marshal is for taking down castle... I won over a better enemy knight by having my Admiral fight him over the open sea. You can customize your Marshal for different role.
* I have not tried to win by diplomacy yet. Diplomacy is also an important factor in the game.
* Plan ahead and build what you need. There is less space to build than the available structures.
* There is limited number of knights on your court at a given time. Again plan ahead depending on your playing style.
