Very nice Game for In Between and also suitable for the hardcore 2.Worldwar gamer.
The Game is well programmed by the conditions of the time. The Game is still considered a Role model for many Game Series and is a Cornerstone in the tactical gaming category.
The Game is not only great for Gamers, but is also highly recommended for History Fanatics, since to each mission comes up a Text that could be smoothly copied from Wikipedia, but well shows the Gogsing in which the Player bew. The Commander, is set.
But enough of the Babble, the Game, of course, has its Quirks as well. It's confusing to share a Company and send it in different Directions, this takes Time and a little Sensitivity. There is nothing to complain About the Graphics, the Sounds are not always realistic, but they fit the Ambience.

Blitzkrieg 1! Oh, the good old days, where you sat down in front of a Screen for two or three and developed different Strategies together.
"With this Game, it started in my Body. I wanted more Strategy games!! " Fish ~ 2009 One of the best Real-Time strategy Games at the time! The Graphics at that time top, as well as Story and Style of Play. The Game is easy to understand, it's probably because there were still good Tutorials at the time, or a very easy Introductory Mission! I explain it very briefly: Select Unity, click on Enemy and that's it!
The Story is divided into 3 different Themes, but they all play in World War II, but even in advance: The Game is not from 16 in my Opinion, there are only Tanks. Sometimes very little blood But otherwise there is nothing nasty there (apart from the War) but let's get back to the Story: You have the Decision: The ALLIIRTEN | The USSR and | The WEHRMACHT The Gameplay is also done great in this Game: Before each Mission you can choose which Units you want to take into your Sleep, so there are thousands of Ways to play the Game. There are Also hundreds of Different Units.
This Game also has 2 Extensions (which are already in the product here): 1. "Burning Horizon": The Graphics and Style of Play remain the same. Added a Scenario in the Far East as well as 26 new Missions. The AI (The Computer Controlled counter) has been edited here a bit (stronger blue).
2. "Rolling Thunder": Everything stays the same Here when it comes to playing And Graphics! In this Expansion, as an American, you play against the Germans. Especially here in this Game are Operation Husky, and Operation Cobra.
As a third Addition there are "Green Devils," which is not available in this Version and has to be Purchased individually. But The Air Fights are interesting here.
The Game became Publishable on March 28, 2003 and it runs (at least with me) even on new Operating Systems like Windows 7/8.1/10!
Comam Review: A great Game, which takes a lot of Time as some Missions are tricky, but still Fun!
