I have HOI, HOI2, EU2, Victoria. I'm amazed at the depth and historical attention to detail in all of Paradox' games. However, each game has major annoyances:
1. Undocumented rules or features.
2. Bugs, bugs, bugs until the ninth patch.
3. Micromanagement issues that turn it into a clickfest or an accounting game. Example: resources in Victoria, convoys in HOI2, colonization in EU2.
BOA is the best wargame release that I've ever seen for easing all three of the problems for buyers and allowing you to concentrate on strategy. I cannot wait for the Civil War game or any other game this company creates.
