Yes, definitely.

First of all, the amount of control you have over the units is less in UV. Second, UV has a smaller theater of war, so whatever setup tasks you have are limited to a much smaller map. Third, the full campaigns are shorter, so you can finish them more quickly, learn from your mistakes and start a new game.

That said, once you master UV, I suspect you will want more control and a bigger war and move on to AE.

Cheers!

it is a very good game. The advantage over WiTP is you can get out a turn in 5-10 minutes instead of hours from what I hear. I have been toying with the idea of buying AE, but will keep playing this one as well. There are some bugs ( as in most complex games), but nothing that cannot be dealt with. ONly drawback is late war us planes are far too powerful, and early ones are a bit weak.
