So yeah, this is based on my first twenty minutes with it, I'll get back on the game after adapting my good old mod, gotta have Sicily steamrolling everyone with cavalry charges and OP trebuchets. You can also almost recruit more commanders in one turn, the first time it happened I was took by surprise and lost a turn of research because I didn't notice I had an extra mage recruited. Now making your battle plans is less tiresome, instead of getting to a sequence of textboxes the process of choosing attack targets has been streamlined, and so now I don't have to get through the entire process again only because I pressed the wrong choice.
