I'll admit up front that I am NOT a Real-Time Strategy (RTS) fan. Something about how the genre requires micromanagement but at the same time requires the player spread their attention across their entire area of influence just doesn't click with me. When I heard about “Dawn of Discovery” (“DoD”) and how it was a ‘beginner-level' RTS title, I figured I'd check it out. After all, I tried “Goblin Commander” for the same reason (and was still unimpressed). Instead of aping “Warcraft,” though, “DoD” seems to ape “Age of Empires,” a series I have tried repeatedly to get into. Despite my misgivings about this game being published by Ubisoft, one of the biggest offenders in the creation of shovelware, the $20 price tag dared me to take the plunge.
