I played it back when the game first came out and did not like it. Galactic Battlegrounds was pretty good though, and that one is extremely similar to Age of Empires.
Empire at War is infinitely better than the "skin-on-age-of-empires" Battlegrounds. They simplified and streamlined it a bit. But honestly, that's not that bad. Made it feel more realistic. (I.e. money makes the world go 'round.)
