Default Windows 8

Tanks for all of your help. I managed to get a copy of Steel Fury: Kharkov 1942. It runs nicely on my current computer, but I am planing on possibly upgrading soon. Does SFK42 work with winows 8?

If I were you, I'd get Windows 7 instead. I haven't heard much praise for Windows 8.

Windows 8.1 64bit is very nice, I've come to really really like it, even tho I love XP more and hate to see it go. Not all games you could play on XP are playable on 8.1, and that is the biggest downfall I've seen for 8.1.

Good choice. Just started playing my copy recently and heartily enjoying it.

The NTA 1.8 mod is highly recommended, details on the Gravitram forum here:

The mission reports here showcase some of the extra stuff you get with this and the Steel Panzers Mod:

Good hunting!

Iron Front Liberation 1944 based on the Arma engine is also fantastic for its combined arms play.

If you're looking for an MMO WW2 tank experience with Western Front equipment, you may wish to check out (if you've not already) ww2 Online. Its been around since June 2002 (and the graphics show it, but that its still around and people pay to play is testament of its value).

Or you can try Red Orchestra 2 Heroes of Stalingrad which has some playable tanks( Panzer IV F2, T 70, T-34/42 etc) and some maps made for tank warfare.
