A very realistic WWII game with plenty of options and units to play but could do with a lick of 'pretty paint'

This is one of the more realistic WWII games that I have played and one that has a lot of hidden depth and surprises.

At first glance is does not look that impressive and I am the first to admit that it is looking a little dated these days. Everything that you can see works though and is functional in some form so it is not all that bad.

The interface is clean and clear and easy to use and understand which is very important in this type of game. There are tonnes of different types of units and vehicles that you can use and they are all very authentic in their detail and in what they can and can't do.

You take up the role of a divisional commander in the game, sending your troops and vehicles all over the well constructed maps to engage the enemy. There is no resource management here either, you get what you need (in terms of troops etc) at the start of the mission and it is up to you how you use them.

All in all it is a nice little game and can be very intense and fun to play but you have to like this genre to get the most out of it.
