I find radious extremely easy, yet fun to play: it's pros are you can have massive 40 vs 40 stack battles, or go "fuck you" and send 40 units to kill an army of like 4 leves. In a campaign I started last night with radious, I have like 30000 gold just sitting in the bank, and 4 full stack armies and 1 full stack navy. Early buildings are cheap, and troops and money flow really easily. Radious on the other hand, is the exact opposite. I'm sure if you're willing to spend 50 turns spannin "Next turn" early on, the late game may be fun, but I'm playing to take over the world, not spend 5 turns amassing enough gold to turn a level 1 port into a level 2 fishery. AI, a faction with like 1 settlement'll have a full stack army and a half full stack army + their garrison and be just fine. Mix that with the fact that the AI is well.
Not to mention sieging a town, even a non-capital is impossible, since in DeI, each siege takes at least 12 turns, and each town, even non capitals have like 20 garrison units just begging you to fight them. Sure, the individual units/ battles for DeI look cool, but it takes almost the entirety of your economy to build a single building, and having even a single full stack army early in the game makes your income drop to like, 400 gold a turn. I've played both, and I may be in the minority, but I couldn't stand DeI, and I tried the campaign multiple times.
