Well, this is an economy & politics orientated game, but there is the possibility of fighting wars. I'd advice you to look for some gameplay AARs in the AAR forum, hopefully they can give you a better idea of what the game is about

hope it helped

Paradox games generally have large periods of waiting when there are no wars.

Welcome to the foums!

It's not really focussed on war, so yeah there will be periods when you are concentrating on your economy and politics, moreso than in, for example, EU3. But if you want war, go ahead and have it. Be careful though!

This question has nothing to do with the subject of this thread. Which is considered thread-hijacking, which is not allowed.

First of all, a hearty welcome to the boards, Ppbrover!

It's not that you might be expecting too much of the game, but, rather, it's a question of expecting the appropriate things of this game.
This is a Grand Strategy Game, if you expect something like a 'Total War Game'*RTS/TBS, then this is not it.

Rome:Total War, Medieval: Total War.., etc.
