Not worth the price. I honestly believe that the developers of this game have never been near a military in their lives. The ranges and accuracy are so poorly implemented its extremely frustrating to watch battles play out. Helicopters have to be on top of its target to fire, aircraft are so squishy and rarely make a difference. Stealth bombers like the F-117 were only ever detected on radar with their bomb bays open in real life. The same plane gets shot down 9/10 times before it even reaches its target because stealth and realism are just thrown out the window. Artillery ruins this game so expect to get battered every few minutes while counter battery might as well be a waste of shells with how ineffective it usually is unless you micro it. Speaking of micro, the brain dead ai is completely hopeless and requires you to constantly direct every little thing. I think some of these issues would be somewhat rectified if there were more units. Compared to wargame, everything costs way more to deploy. This leads to less units in the battle at a time and making some of the issues with aircraft and helicopters all the more glaring due to how high their cost is. Its so frustrating to even have a casual game because the logic and realism is consistently thrown away for fairy tale magic. I really want to like this game but I just cant.

Update: This continues to be a poorly developed game, it has its moments and there is no RTS like it right now on the market, but the balance is so skewed right now towards artillery it makes every game artillery simulator instead of combined arms. People will do nothing but shoot artillery the entire game and end up with 10k kills while their team loses which may be fun for them but makes everyone else suffer. Again, if the artillery numbers stayed the same but every other unit became cheaper to field allowing for more on the battlefield, this problem would be less pronounced and allow for more strategies to counter artillery as well.
