I find it to be very fun. Simple controls and very nice graphics and animations. Definitly along the lines of AOE but like I said earlier , simple controls. Fun fun fun

I love the game. It's sort of a cross between AOE and Civilizations. Basicly, if you like AOE you will like RON. Here are some screen shots:
