Theatre of War - Seizing the hills (pic heavy!)

Rotary Crewman · 02-08-08, 01:21 PM

Tried the demo, like Dowly I am an avid CC player and thought this was a perfect 3D CC solution.

Unfortunately, demo doesn't run on this little laptop so I'll have to give this one a miss

Also tried the demo and liked it quite a bit. It sure is abit more confusing than CC, but I think I learn it.

Similar to Combat Mission but graphically improved. Doesn't look as complex as Theatre or War but at least this little laptop can run it!

Give this one a go too Dowly

edit: Forgot to say, it is turn based but the units will react if the enemy is seen

I never really liked the Combat Missions, mostly because of the turn based action.

Good to hear, mr ferret!

Publishers like this one - who make quality games for adults - should be supported.

Here I am trying to stop the Russians from entering Berlin in the later stages of the war:

Just a quick question, is there a button or info screen where you can see all your troops that are in the mission? Takes too much time to go and find all the guys with the map. Something you can click on the unit and it takes you to it's position.

You can assign groups with ctrl + 1, 2, 3, 4, etc. I dont know anything else.
