It's fast paced (a playthrought takes 1-2 hours) but has enough variation, throught different factions' playstyle and randomize objectives, that it never feel repetitive.It's heavily focused on manuvering. As human (defender) you never have quite enough forces to be everywhere and as goblin (attacker) you cannot waste time and resources to smash the human resistance. Goblin storm defenitly gives you the "Barbarossa campaign" feel in a fantasy setting.While the interface might lack some bells and whistles it doesn't gets in your way by becoming clunky and the bugs are ironed out quickly by the very active developers.If you are looking for a strategy game that can be played in one session and with multiplayer capabilty, then Goblin Storm is the game for you. It's a very interesting and fun game, I honestly feel a little bit bad for giving it a negative review.However, there are a couple of problems.First of all, it crashed on me 2 times during my 4 playthroughs and I lost 2 of them. Not fun and the crashes were random.Second of all, (and this is my biggest gripe with the game) there is no manual and the information on game mechanics is lacking. The tutorial explains the super basics, the tool-tips help a little bit but still not to the point where you know how to use them. What's the difference between attack and march? How are odds calculated? How is damage calculated? Why the hell did my units run away? Mechanics of control zones? How does scouting work? How do levy's work exactly? Why can't I click those levy buttons on the bottom at all in any of the towns? etc. etc. on practically every mechanic in the game. You're just left guessing which you shouldn't be at all in a strategy game.Also the price is too steep for the amount of content right now.Once a manual gets added I'll change this to a thumbs-up.Dev suggestions:Make a manualAdd an event log for every impulse in the replay like "Goblin horde fought humans at X and humans retreated" or whatever. The UI is a bit crappy..

The UI is a bit crappy.. This game has got great potential. At the moment there are only 4 maps (though randomised cities and village placement each time), and five factions, which will keep you occpied for some time. There are some UI improvements that need to be added. However the devs are active and taking feedback into account. They are also planning on expanding the game in terms of maps and factions. Really there is alot going for this game. It has unparalleled tactical depth and fills a nice niche between having great tactical combat while allowing for some interesting economical gameplay elements. You get to build towns and villages which affect how much money you have to hire your army with, but you need to balance between placing towns in lucrative, prosperous areas and placing them in defensible location. It also has coop so it can be interesting to play with friends (or against!).You can play as either Defender (the Human factions) or the Goblins who are attacking. The Goblins have several objectives: conquest, slave raid, gold raid, and relic capture. The objectives are unknown to the defenders and through intellegence and scout reports the Humans have to decipher what the Goblins Objectives are. This always makes for a challenging game as the Defender is always left guessing to what the Goblins true objectives are and how to respond accordingly. Ultimately Goblin Storm presents an original game and a fantastic addition to both tacitical and fantasy strategy games. The devs are transparent and are actively developing more free content and are open to suggestions.. This game has got great potential.
