The single best strategy game released since "Civilization II" (and perhaps even the original "Civilization.")
This is a huge game. I've been playing it for weeks now and am only now just getting an idea of what's possible.

Elegant, complex, and beautiful, Europa Universalis is a class act all the way, and is certainly worthy of being considered one of the strategic greats of our time.
Those that invest the time it takes to learn all of this game's subtleties will be rewarded with a rich and engrossing gaming experience.
Once you get past the initial shock of how big and occasionally unwieldy the game is, you'll find that the detailed mechanics work to produce an unparalleled level of depth.
If you have no suicidal tendencies, you better never play Europa Universalis on your own; always have a friend at your side to turn off your computer when he notices you haven't had any food, water nor sleep for several days.
The military model is the most simplistic with limited troop options and strategies. As war-gaming, it's barely more complex than "Civ II."
Summary In a time of hunger for power, honor, and wealth, it is your destiny to rule your country, accept new challenges, mobilize troops, build cities, and exploit your resources. The skilled will gain wealth; the less fortunate can expect poverty and disease. Do you have what it takes to change the course of history? [Strategy First]
