This is very very bad game :(. this games great. Very good game.. Once you get the hang of it , it gets very fun. One of the most detailed History Games.. A perfect intellectual game! Depicts the epoch very good, Absolutely necessary to read the manual, though.. The engine is slow...never quite sure if the game has froze or still loading. the turns are slow and laggy. The game play its self is poor. Unless you like a laggy game that constantly over rides your orders and does what it wants anyway then hands you your\u2665\u2665\u2665\u2665\u2665the moment you start to turn things around this game isn't for you. I have invested enough hours to assess this game as a boat anchor.. Sorry guys, I wanted to like this game. If I ever learn it, I may even still. However, the game is not for me. Overly complicated management systems are fine when they are less obfuscated. The tutorial teaches you the very basics, and then you are thrown into a set up limited turn scenario where you cannot waste turns figuring things out. I cannot figure out how the economy works. Some of that may just be that I am currently playing multiple games and don't want to spend the hours trying to learn it. There are only a couple lets plays, and they move pretty quickly and either don't explain, or spend 15 minutes explaining the history of a feature in Roman civilization rather than how it functions in game. I get it, some REALLY love Rome. I enjoy but not on that level. Basically, I learned the paradox games no problem, but this one remains vague.To top it off, the game engine is a pig. You resolve a turn, and the game basically freezes until you get to a battle screen. Turns take 30 seconds to a minute depending. I hear that the game this engine is from "Pride of Nations" was much worse. I really want to try the Civil War 2 game based on the engine, I am just afraid at that price that I won't be able to learn it. I have limited gaming time these days with kids/wife etc, and don't want to spend a week of gaming time learning a system. The game looks nice, although I have to play in in a crappy low res because the ffonts are so small I couldn't read it. The game is all about reading text and figures, and I couldn't. Not only size, but the particular font didn't blend well with the backgrounds thru my tv. I play paradox games at 1080 with no problem, so I'm not exactly blind. I applaud the developers, and I'm sure there is a really nice game here. For me, as a moderate wargame tactical fan, it is just too much when coupled with the bad UI and long turns that you cant even scroll the map during. If I ever find the impetus to learn the game and put some time into it, I may change my vote. Not bad, but not for everyone. Romanophiles and serious warsim people may enjoy a bit more, or if you have some experience with the engine, which I do not.. Alea Jacta Est (hence AJE) simulates Roman-era warfare at a strategic level, and it is probably the best one on Steam.As any good strategy game, AJE is a game of informations, and its brilliance shines the most in how these informations are acquired: unlike other "arcade" games (e.g. Rome Total War 1/2) the map does not show true data, but just a patchwork of rumors, whose reliabililty depends on factors under the player's control (e.g. own army composition, scouting), factors out of control (e.g. subordinates' skill, or lack of it), and enemy's actions.The game reward thinking and planning: re-routing a marching army is not a trivial task (and rightly so), and plainly wrong assumptions about enemy's intentions could lead to catastrophic consequences (again, just think to Scipius and Hannibal at the Rhone's crossing).Under this regard, the 30days long turns are indeed helpful to make the game more credible, and to add a bit of thrill.Another very nice touch is that pitched battles are not always a necessity (Sun Tzu could not agree more...) and their effective impact on the course of the campaign is for the most a consequence of the campaign strategic plan: again, it is a game of strategy, not of tactics, and subordinates' defeats are just one among factors which must be taken into account when planning the moves (a note about battles: these may happens if armies/fleets enter the same region, but this fact alone does not guarantee that a pitched battle will happen. Armies' rules of engage, army composition and evasion values, commanders' skills define the chance for a bloody encounter. Since the turn covers 30 days, there may be more encounters, until one side lose its ability to fight or the field commander call the retreat).It goes without saying that supply chains, fatigue, units' cohesion, experience, weather, terrain, etc...are simulated and have a major impact on the campaign's outcome: an army or fleet can literally "melt" even before meeting the enemy, and even the best veterans need to rest and winter in suitable quarters.Compared to military aspects, diplomacy, country management and home politics are quite stylized (also because the game is not a sand-box, and developers evidently chose to "force" up to a certain extent the historical accuracy) but blend well.The choice to follow quite closely history on the one hand opens interesting "what if" options, but on the other gives a good advantage to those knowing the events (which I suppose are the vast majority of such games' purchasers): this is true especially when playing as Rome's enemies.In-game tutorial covers just the basics, but there is also a well-detailed manual, so I would not complain here: if there is a manual, it is supposed to be read.As for the technical aspects, the game features nice graphics (nothing too fancy, but makes the map very easy to read, and this is by far more important than seeing a lot of tiny legionaries and hoplites swinging swords and spears...) and decent score (nothing to be thrilled of, and a bit repetitive on long scenarios); turn processing is a bit slow on low-end computers, even if I play AJE even on a rudimental Celeron N2840 powered, 2GHz RAM netbook.On the bright side, the game is remarkably stable on Win10Overall AJE (and its expansions) is a great game, which could make the player lose track of time (even if there is a clock in the interface, just in case :) ) and capable of huge satisfactions
