I wasn't very impressed with this sequel. It felt more like a knee-jerk reaction to competition to Star Craft II than expanding on the previous game. There wasn't much "strategy" involved and it 90% of the time ended up as a really long stalemate game until someone got relaxed enough that they made a mistake. The lack of units and unit abilities like in the previous game made it very boring as well. I liked some of the "newer" units, such as heroes, but it just didn't hit the void in my heart from the first game. Being that it's a couple years later that I'm reviewing this, I can imagine that this game is no longer supported, so I doubt there will be any additions or expansions outside of what is already released for this game.

Oh, and GAMES FOR WINDOWS LIVE. Why on EARTH would you include this in a game that you would sell on Steam? It's the most pain in the ass piece of ♥♥♥♥ and you have no other choice but to use it if you want to download updates for the game.
