If you're a fan of the original, then you'll definitely enjoy the extra bit of gaming you'll get for twenty bucks. However, if you were a marginal fan and were just thinking of trying it again, I'm not sure you're going to find too much to keep your interest for very long. It's still a very solid game with a great premise and interesting style of play that you just gotta love, but the lack of new friendly units and the slowdown that puts you in slow motion at times is a bit annoying.

If you liked Majesty FKS, then you'll probably like Majesty NE. But if you didn't understand why all those reviewers kept giving high marks to Majesty FKS, or if you thought Majesty FKS was too hard, then there are probably better ways for you to spend your time.

The decision to recommend an add-on pack hinges on two things: price and longevity. The Northern Expansion costs about half the price of a new game and significantly extends the longevity of the original. Therefore, if you're a fan of Majesty, you'll want to own it. If you've never played the game but the concept piques your interest, expect the game and expansion to be bundled together and made available for purchase at a later date.
