From the Armchair General review it looks promising. I could wind up buying two tank sim games this year.

Some time ago I watched a lot of steel fury videos on youtube and I must say it looked impressive. Certainly not a game with the longevity of OFP or SHIII but nonetheless a fine simulation of wwII tank combat.

Now that release is imminent I think I will download the demo again and try to play some missions.

I am getting both anyway, the few sim-makers are holy crusaders in my book, but can anybody say something about the differences between Kharkov and T34 vs Tiger?

A notable difference,

Kharkov Steel fury does NOT have a Multiplayer
Tiger versus T-34 has a Multiplayer.

When I first heard about Steel Fury, I thought it was the same game. Seems to be two separate games by two different Russian dev teams, under one publisher. Odd, a drought of tanksims followed by two very similar titles.

I will be posting a preview of Steel Fury in a few days, here are some nuggets to savor

Can´t count how often i played the demo mission.
I have the impression that Steel Furys will be a tad "better" than Battle Tanks (bummer that there is no multiplayer in SF) but i will get both games anyway since the last WW II tank sim i bought was Panzer Elite.
