Rating:  - One of my favorite RTS games, even better on multiplayer
It seems all the people giving this game a negative review are people who have played the Axis & Allies board game and are thinking this is the video game version of it. I've never played the board game but I have been playing RTS and strategy games my whole life and this is one of my favorite.
Here's what I love:
1. The fact that when you build soldiers, you get a whole squad of troops and not just one unit such as in Age of Empires.
2. Units have morale and will retreat ... Read More
Rating: - Good
A good overall game to play if you are looking for basic stratigic gameplay. However, if you are looking for a hardcore Roelplaying or stratigic game this is not the one to go for.
Good game for the younger crowds or pre-teen or younger to play.
Rating: - Maybe better for adullts?!?!?!?
Seems like the adults are giving this game a better rating than the kids. Maybe you have to have been raised in the 50's and 60's, having heard all your dad or grandad's war stories to appreciate it. The strategies to win are subtle and endless. Yea, the game guide is about 85% percent helpful, but in a few scenarios, it seemed like they were playing a different version of the game. In most scenarios I've discovered at least several different ways to win other than what was presented in the guide. ... Read More
Rating:  - A WW2 Fan
This is a great game for kids and adults you just need to be a fan of
RTS's (Real Time Strategy). The people that have reviewed this are obviously turn-based fans (The difference is that in Turn Based games you move one guy on a board and click end turn and the next person goes, In a RTS there is no end turn button on the screen you actually reinact the battles.) From a person who enjoys RTS's I think this game is great because I can control units and tell them where to move this makes the game ... Read More
Rating: - Fire in the Hole
It was the best time I've ever had screaming my head off at the apparent boredom I was suffering. Even though the graphics are outdated when compared to most recent RTS games(and compared to other games when it was released), the graphics do add a sort of vintage/authentic look to the era. The main problem that this games suffers from is that the only way to win is to zerg(get a whole bunch of units and overrun the enemy with numbers). I love the general powers that are unique to each general but usually ... Read More
