Very well said, old friend. Had to come out of hibernation to offer my support of your copious and thoughtful review. I like the idea of having variant ages with quirky alternate units and buildings to play around with, but it sounds like it was implemented in the most uninteresting way...

What this says to me is that they're contemplating some themed spinoffs in partnership with other brands that represent specific IPs. Kind of like how you can buy "Star Wars Monopoly" or "Lord of the Rings Risk." 2K/FXS has already shown a desire to link up with major IPs (see also: Midnight...
