We play this over the home network, the kids on their PC's against me on my evil monarch machine (as they dubbed it).
The game is not about blood and gore but about strategy and tactics and cooperation. My 7 and 10 year old now both beat me (alright alright, I am somewhat dim) and everytime we play the game gets us all excited. We build big armies, strike alliances or fight foes together.
If you have not tried this game and used to love Risk as a game then this is amazing stuff. The graphics are also exceptional.
Check the game ratings out with a search engine. This is one of the best in its category. Also note that we bought it for less that ten bucks.

You will need a disk per machine to play multiplayer (unless you're inot downloading cheats and hacks) and certainly to play online: 1 disk per player.

this game is fun, and addictive! After a few weeks, though, you may tire of it a bit- start playing random maps then, and you'll get a few more weeks of fun. Then you'll want to take some time off from it, as you'll find that you get so good at defeating others you don't want to play anymore. Or, change the difficulty level.

All I can say is I love Stragey/War games! The graphics were decent and the game play was amazing. Whenever I want to relieve a little stress and I have some time to burn this is defintely one of my goto games to play.
