This genre is intresting, but the pay-to-win concept makes this particular game a blop. Skill means little; diplomacy is irrelevant; "pay to get power" mentality wins here. It is upsetting for a strategy game, to lose to low-skill players just because they want to pay, and you want to learn and play better without any unfair practices. Pay-to-win can be balanced on very rare occaisions, but this one is definatelly not one. Also, prices differ x10 by region! Game is flooded with nationalism.
