You have a balance where you can't send too many men/women into battle and a big tank like thing is not invulnerable but the super one are pretty much like that but still can be taken out but that takes time. No one has a clear advantage when it comes to strength of the forces. But unlike them this time you the balance of the games seems to be prefect. Anyway, just the the previous expansion you get 2 more races this time under your control.
Thing is in the table top game you have to figure out all of the math stuff in which you do not for this game. But with each expansion it mimics the table top game more and more. First of all i have been a fan of the game.
