Title: Not a worthy competitor to AoK II
Product review: I got Cossacks because I was tired of AoK II and wanted a new game in the RTS genre. I am not impressed. The big advantage that many people cite is that you can have larger armies, up to 8,000 units in the game. Unfortunately, this decision has two negative results: 1) The cannon-fodder mentality, instead of throwing dozens of units at an opponnent, you can now throw hundreds. As an example of how the game caters to this mentality, you can create 5 units in a click by holding down shift. 2) Graphics obviously must suffer as the computer is drawing 10 times as many objects. I'd say stick with AoK II.
