Yes but with 100x the complexity. EU2 is an extremely complicated,
detailed game.

How do you move? Are you able to keep track of your moves so that you are
able to ensure that you've made all the moves you can make for each turn?

Game (EU2) is pausable "real"-time. The emphasis of the game is less on war
(although you will fight some) and more on economic and social development.
Go look on http://www.paradoxplaza.com/ I can't remember at the moment if
there is a demo or not, but if nothing else some of the screen shots and
some questions on their forums will help you out a great deal.

Not to mention the 640k posts on the forums. :)

The AARs are great for all of the paradox games, quite facinating
reading seeing the game through someone else's eyes.
