I've been pondering that for years.  Definitely interested in the topic but doubted I had the time to learn a new, complex system. 

But this weekend, I found the YouTube channel "RvT WarGames Analysis" which appears to have many fantastic beginner tutorials for RTW2.  That has greatly revived my interest in getting this game.

If you are OK with basic graphics, but have an interest in the period and subject, the game is well worth it. The strategic portion of the game is mostly using a spreadsheet-like interface, with some basic ship graphics for ship design. Battles are more graphic, but still very basic.

But the game is pretty deep, and definitely sucks you in.
