I wasn't too impressed... WAY too much like earlier versions of the game. Graphics were ok but nothing to write home about. If a game doesn't have much new to offer I get bored with it super-quick.

The whole home city thing was ok, but didn't bring enough to the table, the basic game was identical to the last version... make units, run around exploring, make sure whatever units you're fighting against are weak vs your units and your units are strong vs. them.

It eventually becomes an exercise in micromanagement... and that's BORING!
