I was let down. Luckily I only wasted my time and not my money. Pay players dominate the maps. If you plan on playing for free you better be ready for many hours/days of farming. Clicking one minute at a time for small bits of resources is a genius way of wasting peoples time. I'll give Alpha wars that one. The unit cost in resources is ridiculously high. I'm surprised that Alpha wars just doesn't sell unit packages at that rate. Even after managing to capture an AI base, an enemy play destroyed it with ten minutes while I built defenses. This happened to me several times. Most of the time before my units could get to a destination they were destroyed by massive enemy armies either patrolling or forming blockades to the AI bases. I don't really know whats the point of trying anymore so I'm finished with Alpha wars. Just another bait and switch free to play game.
