So, I never actually got to play with the imperial edition add-ons, despite downloading and installing them multiple times. Of course I chose GoG as my distribution platform, so I had to download my IE stuff from Larian Vault, but I was never able to play with any of the stuff that I should have (i.e. gold dragon or whatever). But despite that, I had a really fun time playing dragon commander.
When I first started off, I was really surprised at the new battle mechanics that were implemented. Having played the beta, you could just about beat anything just by spamming grenadiers indefinitely. So when I started up the gold copy of DC I was immediately overwhelmed by the first few battles that I directly controlled. When it came to the political game... I always had 0% respect from the dwarves no matter what, and for the most part always had 100% from the Lizards/Reptiles/whatevertheyare. That's just due to my personal beliefs and such, and yes, I did let Mr. Dwarf become the elected leader, despite how much I despised him. Though at the time, I didn't know it was a scripted event, I thought it was in retaliation to my 0% dwarf repuation status x3. I haven't played in a while, but I plan on making another run through sooner or later. But I just had a really good time with it.
I also thought the dragon from the artworks was more sexy than any of the characters in the game x3 =P
