The premise, in the publisher's words
Focus on strategy over tactics, we’ve stripped the busywork out of 4X gameplay. Combat abstracted via innovative Power system so you need only move armies and fleets. 8 handmade maps charting Bronze Ages around the world, empires in real-world locations. Empires are tagged from ‘Easy’ to ‘Very Hard’ to reflect their unique challenges. Data-driven AI system, flexible enough to succeed in any environment. Streamlined ruleset is inherently AI-friendly so no ‘AI cheating’ required. Players take their turns simultaneously so there’s no waiting around. Choose to play ‘live’ (short turn timers) or ‘asynchronous’ (long game timers).
