Cores, shaders and BIOS oh my!
Is it any good or was it just an outdated novelty clumsily mashing Musou with some strategy aspects and a cool for the time scale/style?

It's actually the other way around, an RTS with Musou combat, the RTS mechanics are much more developed than the action combat, you won't win battles with just your hero unit.

It was one of my favorite OG Xbox games, it had so much replay value with 4 campaigns, multiplayer, and obviosuly being an RTS there were many ways to accomplish missions oh and it has a killer soundtrack too.
