WWII Grand Strategy At Its Best!
Take charge of land, sea and air forces as supreme commander and change the
outcome of the Second World War in Europe! As the supreme commander of the Axis
or Allied forces, the player shapes the fates of the nations at war during the
Second World War in Europe. Political options, research and upgrade of
equipment, management of supply and resources and the strategic employment of
one's armed forces are some of the keys to success. With limited phase
restrictions and wide open turns you are in complete control to try many
different approaches and entertain just as many possible outcomes. The future
of Europe and perhaps ultimate glory is in your hands.
Features:
There are
6 major campaigns to play from either the Allied or Axis side and each begins
at a key moment in history and lasts until you achieve ultimate victory or
surrender in devastating defeat. Begin in 1939, on the eve of the German
invasion of Poland or 1940 as the Axis turn their eyes toward the Low Countries
and France. Launch Operation Barbarossa in 1941 in the East or start in the
summer of 1942 as the Germans aim to clear the Volga and capture Stalingrad and
key resources in the South. Take command in 1943 during the Kursk offensive or
prepare for the Allied invasion of Fortress Europa in 1944.

history by snatching complete victory early or fight to the bitter end

 Game play is turn based with each turn lasting from 1
week up to 1 month depending on the season. Designed for replayability and
realism, options include fog of war, Free French forces, Russian and
Yugoslavian Partisans, scorched earth strategies, war in Siberia and thoroughly
implemented features for sea transport, amphibious assaults, strategic bombing,
industrial production, research and development, declarations of war,
historical and random nation neutrality and allegiances as well as other
political mechanisms.
Players
have the ability to command the forces of 25 Different Nations (6 major and 19
minor), including Germany, USA, USSR, France, Italy, Spain, Canada, Poland,
Hungary, Romania, Greece, Finland and many more.
Unit
Types cover all the major facets of land, sea and air combat including HQs with
true to life historical personalities, Corps, Armies, Tank Groups, Rocket
Detachments, Air Fleets, Strategic Bombers, Battleships, Cruisers, Carriers,
Subs and Transports. Each unit is shown with historically accurate names like
"6th Army" and include significant values for combat strength, readiness,
supply, entrenchment, experience and associated commander ratings.
With
options to set the overall difficulty and computer experience bonuses, the
sophisticated AI will not only target your strategic resources but will also
plan military offensives to wipe out your forces in the field. It fully
implements the smallest details from conducting its own research to
declarations of war. Leave your borders unprotected and the AI will definitely
make you pay the price!
Report
tables keep track of all game statistics including current military strengths,
the number of resources for all combatants, and even the total combat losses
for both sides.
Multiplayer options already include Hotseat, Play-by-Email and now full LAN and
Internet play via TCP/IP with the latest update patch. Click thumbnail for full

An easy
to use Campaign Editor is included to create many "what-if" type campaigns.
Draw up your own plans for a late Axis invasion of England or perhaps an early
Allied assault on the soft underbelly of Europe, and watch them come to life.
Campaigns can begin as early as September 1, 1939 and last until May 7th of
1946 (extended to 1947 with latest update patch). This is the same tool used to
create the Campaigns that come with the game.
