Not only. The units and the battlefields looked pretty stellar, certainly the former better than the current Warhammer game in many ways.
The gameplay itself was not bad either, but due to the ridiculously low amount of total units in battles, you rarely ever felt as if you were fighting an actual battle, and therefore there was no real strategy to speak of, only miserable micromanagement of units.
Hell, if they only brought the numbers of units and soldiers at least to those of an average total war game (and that is not saying much) the game would be marvelous!
