A global strategy from Paradox, more like a simulator of the destruction of everything and everyone under the yoke of your great empire, and more like an Alabama simulator. It allows you to feel yourself from a northern Finnish pagan robbing pitiful European women to a real Roman emperor who is participating in a great crusade. One of the best mechanics of the game is the event system, which allows you to fully experience being the head of state. Although the game even allows you to play as a simple vassal, owned by a small, seedy lordship. Otherwise, it is the player's choice. The game can also boast that it sometimes keeps the player in suspense, because if you don’t have an heir, and you own a world empire, then the game is finished!
In conclusion, I want to say that I personally was fascinated by this game at first sight and I still play it to this day and am waiting for the release of part 3!
Good luck in your military campaigns!
