Co-op

EDIT After 10 hours: i would say the points mentioned above still are valid points. however the game is fun wehen playing with friesns in coop or 1vs1i still would prefer a gametime of about 30-40 miutes. at the moments each games takes about one hours against the AI. against players the games are faster than an hours

Looks like the community is dying, so online matchmaking will not be an option soon.

Graphics
Players who bring up Graphics mostly praise it.
The developer can obviously make some nice graphics and the units seem to be autonomous enough, but there are too many gateways I must get through before being able to worry about any strategy.
