Now I remember in Heroes of might and magic II and III I could take my time exploring, growing and still beat an AI. I wonder what comparing those games with Civilization, how do you guys perceive those two games in term of fairness, complexity and longevity? I have played disciples 2 a lot and have loved it, the art style is amazing, though the game is very unbalanced. Have done age of wonders in lan parties with friends, but solo i did not find it fun at all.
