Allows players to play as nomadic rulers. It also introduces a number of smaller features, but the ability to play as nomadic rulers is always fun. Players can now live out their fantasies of conquering Europe as Chinggis Khan.

This DLC provides valuable flavor to the Indian subcontinent, one of the most diverse regions on earth.

The game designers really did a lot of research into ancient history to get the names, places, and events right. I found this game to be compelling, but then I am an Ancient History major. If you are looking for an action packed shoot'em up, forget it. I found it a refreshing break from most war-games. It had an intersting story line, good artwork, and music. It takes a lot of stratgy to keep your family alive and porsperous.

Great DLC. A must get if you are a fan!
