Dominions 4 has some pretty old graphics (mostly 2D and even the "3D" battles are not animated and use simplistic pieces), however for pure depth of gameplay and complexity, this rivals Space Empires 5! If it only had multiple planes and "adventure sites", it would be better than Master of Magic. And since I consider MoM one of the greatest games ever created, that's saying something!

If you love complex gameplay and pure strategy (without the tactics), this game is for you. If 50 hours+ of micromanagement and very considered moves appeals to you (hey, a fellow masochist!), you'll love this game. If that sounds like hell to you, avoid this game :)
