Alright, so I decided to change my review. I still definitely recommend this game for anyone who likes mass RTS or micromanagement but I primarily recommend playing multiplayer as singleplayer may typically end up becoming a late-game lag-fest with 1 year taking roughly 30 minutes to finish and battles typically becoming so decisive that you know in advance if you will beat the entire enemy nation/alliance or lose.

tl;dr
late game is a slow ass lag-fest and multiplayer is the way to go
