  • Summary: Your commanders are key to the optimal use of every class of unit, from infantry to bomber. Special abilities for leaders and units mean no two armies are ever the same, and no two battles have the same result. Bold maneuvering and careful use of equipment can often mean the difference between victory and defeat. [Mattel Interactive] Expand

  1. It's just a great tactical exercise for strategy gamers of any rank.
  2. A perfect game for those who are new to turn-based gaming but veterans might feel that it's still no different than last week's date.
  3. I found the "pixel hunting" very frustrating. Many times, in order to select a unit for action, I had to position the cursor in EXACTLY the right position.
  4. The welcome return of a massively branching campaign structure, along with dozens of battles to fight, units to deploy, and officers to lead them gives an almost unlimited amount of replay value for the lone wargamer.
