Story
Players who bring up Story mostly praise it.
18 of 120 sampled reviews raised it
The story is interesting. 3 long campaigns with almost 60 hours of play time is quite a nice deal, specially compared to many DLC nowadays that provide so little in content and play time.
Gameplay
Players who bring up Gameplay mostly praise it.
10 of 120 sampled reviews raised it
Rather than simply adding a handful of maps or cosmetic content, the expansion introduces an entirely new faction, fresh campaigns, additional gameplay mechanics, and several important improvements that enhance both single-player and multiplayer experiences.
Combat
Players who bring up Combat mostly praise it.
3 of 120 sampled reviews raised it
Every map becomes a careful balance of exploration, economy management, army composition, and tactical combat.
