We need another topic in here, so dont mind please if I bring this one from the bottom of the page, Galuf.
The one that I enjoyed the most was the third one, since they all alowwed for you to build with a race for different reasons. If you like buildings with good HP, go humans. If you want a race that damages the enemy no matter what they do, go orc. You want to confuse the enemy? use nighteleves. You want to overwhelme your enemy with a simply overwhelming array of different abilities? Go undead.
Aegis said that the second was a really balanced game, and if that was so, then Id rather play Ws. and Frozen Throne.
