Agreed, very well done. I just won my first game on introductory level. Time now to bump it up a notch and get serious!

A hidden gem is the tutorial page which contains a strategy guide and tips&tricks. Good stuff. Not in the manual though?

As for the AI, even on lowest level it was pretty aggressive. I started 4-5 games and it took a while to get the hang of things. This game I just won had several dicey moments: Rome invaded Spain, Rome invaded Africa, Syracuse rallied to my side and then revolted, my fleet beat a Roman fleet (6 vs 3) and then a storm sank it (damn!). The option cards and events make every turn special and the battles are brutal. All in all an enjoyable game.

Even better.
A marginal win on middle difficulty.
