"but I’m of the opinion that Stratus: Battle for the Sky is going to be a stand-out RTS because it’s doing something no other game is doing right now. It’s hard to stand out among the sea of RTS/Strategy games in general, but I think that Stratus is doing just that. Even if I did lose every single time I played, I had fun! It really challenged me to think in new ways to get to the other players High Priest."
