Following on from Thursday's news of the Imperial Glory demo, GameSpy has a preview of the full game itself.

It's impossible to play Imperial Glory without thinking of The Creative Assembly's Total War series. Whenever a game tries to blend grand scale turn-based gameplay with 3D real-time strategy the comparison to the classic series is inevitable. Based on a near-release preview build, Imperial Glory seems to hold its own against those comparisons while adding a few new wrinkles.
