I tried it yesterday, single player mod, on very easy just to see the mechanics and be able to explore the concept without real challenge.
It is great! I do like to coin and glory resource, it is nice to have the stall to "extend" the market, nice feature to have the priest worshipping at the statue. Tha additional units and tech are a nice addition, and specally the fact that you can't do them all, there is a choice, and they are not only "good"
