Re: compared to SEIV
I have played all the SE Versions on only (several months ago) picked up Dom 2. My observations are...
Dom2 has alot of replay due to the number of nations and pretenders that can be created
high level of fustration because of the higher learning curve (though keep in mind I played SE since SE II was first released so this is probably not valid)
Is very deep due to the number of magic artifacts, promotable chars, magic spells
Fickle - luck has a large part of this - Like someone said a supercombant pretender can own the board with no other army . This can be fustrating because the piece can become so powerful that other pieces cannot effect it. (This happened to me a number of time) where in SEIV the smaller ships (destroyers, cruisers, frigates even) still can play a role (though this gets debated regularly).
Having said all that - I am in turn 127 on my Dom2 game number 12 and control half the board while 2 other AI opponents control the rest
