I would also say that the gameplay overall here is smoother and easier to get to grips with. It features the same kind of action-heavy RTS gameplay that the second game features, but the overall presentation is much slicker and easier on the eyes. The campaign is one of the most spectacular WWII campaigns I have had the pleasure to play through and goes right from the invasion of Poland all the way to the capture of Berlin.Īs well as the campaign, you have many different game modes to enjoy such as 1x1, 2x2 and 3x3 and skirmish.

What I really like about this is the way that while this is a real time strategy game, it is heavily focused on the actual battles and organizing your units on the actual battlefield. Let’s start with the second game in the series.
