WITE2 - worth the cost?

[Weasel]

So for those who have taken the plunge is WITE2 worth the price tag?  In Cdn dollars it is $100.00, a lot of money thus to justify the cost the game will have to be ground breaking, is it?  I have read several reviews and so far I glean the following:

- AI is faster
- looks nicer
- Air is like WITW
- you can leave much more to the AI generals
- easier to navigate (which once you are use to WITE 1 is not a problem)

Honestly to me, reading these things, WITE2 seems more like an upgrade you would get with a patch so I am on the fence.  Oh, I also read terrain means less now (or is it more?).
