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.)

Agreed.

Galactic Battlegrounds was garbage, plain and simple.

Empire at War at least made an attempt at strategy, although the ground battles are a pure afterthought. Absolutely no strategy involved.

Still a reasonable effort all-around, the space battles are nice, and although very simplistic, the grand strategy map was entertaining.
