Stalingrad

tldr; Unless you are reaaaaaally into Stalingrad battles, I most certainly would NOT recommend this game. I recently picked up a nasty habit of trying to play games created with Blitzkrieg's Enigma Engine. Blitzkrieg, although some missions were a bit annoying, was a blast. WW1 (another game) done with the same engine was not so much, due to unbalanced troops but still it was manageable. But this is probably the first game made with the same engine that I wouldn’t recommend. The majority of the missions have nothing strategic about them, especially the Soviet ones. You are either just waiting to get lucky enough to survive ridiculous waves or hoping they didn’t blow up a vehicle in first moments that will be your only way to complete the next objective because foot soldiers in this game are extremely useless at a distance, and they almost always spawn far away from the enemy who already have amazing defensive positions. You are playing as Soviet but almost always you don’t have supply sheds so you rely on whatever you have in your trucks. Maybe it is realistic but it is also annoying as hell. They also changed the tank repairing system in this game so you are no longer able to f…

Stalingrad, developed by DTF Games and published by Fulqrum Publishing, is a historically grounded real-time strategy title that focuses squarely on tactical command and battlefield realism rather than spectacle or narrative dramatization. Centered entirely on the Battle of Stalingrad, one of the most decisive and devastating confrontations of World War II, the game aims to immerse players in the grinding attrition and strategic desperation that defined the Eastern Front. Instead of presenting war as a series of cinematic heroics, Stalingrad frames it as a slow, methodical struggle where positioning, unit preservation, and terrain awareness matter far more than rapid expansion or overwhelming production. The structure of the game immediately sets it apart from many mainstream RTS titles. Missions are built around pre-deployed forces rather than base construction and resource harvesting, pushing the experience closer to real-time tactics than traditional strategy. Each unit under your command is valuable, and losses are often permanent within a mission, creating a constant tension between advancing objectives and preserving combat effectiveness. This design forces careful reconnais…

this is the game to play if you liked sudden strike 2

Horrible music, why would you put this soundtrack on a WW2 game??

The practical problem with this game is that there is no complete information on the controls, there is some but nothing concerning how to reverse a vehicle, loading and umloading items, control of impetuous infantry and vehicles and so on. That's a great shame because by all reports this is a great game but it can't be recommended because of the above.

This is by far the greatest WW2 game i have ever and will ever play in my life. its as real as it gets.
