A game also needs content and depth to keep you coming back for more, that gives you a slightly different play experience each time you load it up. I'm not sure this has it, it seems what you see is what you get. Sure it will be fun to play the first time through, probably entertaining the second, third...getting a little bored....you get the picture. Even playing it online may get stale, I don't think human AI can add that much too it. I don't know tho, strategies games never did it for me for online play, I liked FPS much more. Strategies games I alsways like to sit down for a couple hours at a time and just conquer, take a break maybe think some strategies through, maybe pick it up later that day or the next day. Just not as fun when you have to wait for the other person to play. Again, got to love the mods!
