I've been playing Ancient Battles Deluxe for a few months lately. A bit disappointing, all told. the components are great, as good as any out there. However, the combat system is unusual and a bit fluky at times. By that I mean the method of computing the combat odds. Reading the on-line rules before buying did not alert me to the oddity of it all. That and you better have an overwhelming attack to stand any chance of winning. It also plays quickly and gives historic results, so good enough.
I do plan to pick up the State Of Siege games at some point. Likely I'll start with the Civil War game, since this is the 150th of that conflict.
