this... from the reviews it seems that only the trailer looked good. AI is dumb like a rock, formations are only to be seen on screenshots or scripted beginnings of battles. I had such high hopes based on the trailers
I saw a "Lets play" that had formations working.... (needed a drummer in order to form one)
Also people said that AI is retarded only on normal difficulty.....
Might be just lies, I dunno, Ill try it tonight...

Formations need an officer and a drummer and 36,72,120,etc men to make.
The AI is not retarded, it's just cheating it's way to make itself difficult (more ressources, etc...), and is just piling up troops and sending them your way ala C&C. Who cares if they repeatedly smash against your defences?
There is no new units or any change to the concept. It's more of a leaked beta than anything else. Looks, like someone else said, like a remake of the first one by students or something.
At least, for 20€, it's not a REAL shame, even if it should have been a 9.99 type of deal.
TL;DR: Don't bother with it is my advice.
