Question before buying!

One other. The AI is pretty stupid, and easy enough to take down, but it does take a while to get good. However, multiple people can play on the same computer on any schedule, which is where I play MP, and it is beautiful. I would probably buy it just for Single Player, because Multiplayer is a feasible possibility for the future in many cases. Plus, exploration of the spells and items and such is fun, as are self imposed SP challenges.

That said, there are better strategy games if you only do single player. Battle for Wesnoth for example, or DROD if you want microtactics.

You can't be serious. Wesnoth is a cheap hack of game not even coming close to the 15-20 years old classics such as Master of Magic, Fantasy General, Crusade: Fight for Power or even Swords of Aragon (and I only mention turn-based, fantasy-themed ones). Other than being a poster boy for open source champions (most of whom somehow also happen to be anime fanboys), this game has as much value as it costs.
