[h1] Move your troops on the battlefield by dragging them and capture outposts or hold position. You can build trenches to fortify your frontline. Gameplay and visuals are simplified so you will not see your troops engage in battle only blocks. Game isn't offering much except strategy element. To be honest better to play Victoria 3 or other similar strategy games. [/h1]12 found this helpful
AMERRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRICAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA THIS GAME IS TRASH YAYYY!!!!!!!!!!!9 found this helpful
So far, I can't get the game to download nor can I play it from the Steam website. I am having the same problem with Decisive Campaigns, Blitzkrieg from Warsaw to Paris. Cannot play either one and when I try to play from the Steam application my computer locks up with a blue "Osprey Games" logo. Unsat.
If only Osprey had taken a bit more control over this fine but terribly loose tactical game, they might have had the next twenty years of historical PC wargames in their pocket and beaten quite a few shabbier developers who came after, making the World if not a better place then a damn sight more intelligent one.
Too basic and needs better systems
Great idea. I like the way the game focuses on sending orders and strategic movement.
