The story aspect of the game is primarily delivered through its extensive singleplayer missions, which are praised for their quality and quantity, comparable to those in "Phantom Renaissance." However, some players express frustration with mission design, particularly when facing overwhelming enemy forces without the ability to purchase reinforcements. Overall, the singleplayer experience is recommended for those who enjoy mission-based gameplay.
“The only reason to buy this one is for the single-player missions, and it's got a lot of them.”
“You already have Phantom Renaissance, in which case all I have to say is that this one has as many missions, and they're just as good.”
“In any case, I still love the hell out of extra missions, so this is definitely a recommendation for me!”
“The only reason to buy this one is for the singleplayer missions, and it's got a lot of them.”
“If you are looking for a turn-based combat mission, Battle Isle 4: TAW, or any tactical turn-based game, move along.”
“Edit: Stuck on missions where you can't buy reinforcements, while the enemy can, many, and overruns you in a few rounds.”
