The second instalment in the series that would become known as Men of War. Through the eyes of Allied, German and Russian squad leaders, experience the most immersive World War II real-time strategy game where each battle is played out and won differently based on your tactical choices.
The game blends real-time strategy and tactical control, allowing players to seamlessly command squads or individual soldiers. Players can switch between a top-down strategy view and a third-person shooter perspective, providing a refreshing and immersive experience. Players control a limited number of soldiers per mission, fostering a more challenging and strategic approach compared to typical RTS games. Soldiers have a finite inventory, requiring players to scavenge for supplies and weapons from the battlefield, adding an extra layer of depth. The destructible environments further enhance the strategic depth, as players can use the environment to their advantage, destroying cover, buildings, and other obstacles to gain a tactical edge.
The game's key strength lies in its squad-based tactics. Players can issue orders to their squads, directing them to attack, defend, or flank the enemy. The AI-controlled soldiers exhibit realistic behaviors, such as taking cover, evading grenades, and engaging targets in a tactical manner. This squad-based approach encourages players to carefully manage their limited resources, coordinate their units, and make tactical decisions to overcome the challenges presented in each mission. The ability to directly control individual soldiers in a third-person shooter-like manner adds an extra level of player agency, allowing for more precise and nuanced tactical maneuvers.
The game offers players a diverse range of missions and campaigns, with three factions to choose from: the Allies, the Germans, and the Soviets. Each campaign provides a unique narrative and set of objectives, ensuring a varied and engaging single-player experience. The mission design and objectives are well-crafted, presenting players with a range of challenges that require different strategies and approaches to overcome. The destructible environments and AI-controlled enemy forces ensure that each mission can be played out and won differently based on the player's tactical choices. The combination of squad-based tactics, direct soldier control, and varied mission objectives contributes to the game's overall replayability, encouraging players to experiment with different strategies and approaches to achieve victory.
