About

Graviteam Tactics: Mius-Front - tactical battalion level combat simulation. It is a sequel to Graviteam Tactics: Operation Star and Achtung Panzer: Kharkov 1943.

Game is comprised of two modes:
  • Operational - turn-based mode where you can shift and concentrate forces in the chosen directions, resupply and replace units, repair and refuel vehicles.
  • Tactical - real-time mode where you are conducting fire combat with the enemy, capturing territory, destroying vehicles and the enemy manpower.

Four large-scale operations for the Red Army and Wehrmacht with realistic organizational structure. The campaign features more than 100 detailed vehicles produced in USSR, Germany, US and UK. Over 140 sq. km of realistic landscapes were reconstructed from topographical maps and photo and video materials.

  • New enhanced UI: streamlined interface of various panels, radial orders menu and other enhancements.
  • Interface appearance and customization: three variants of appearance are included, customizable unit markers (Red Army, Wehrmacht, NATO).
  • High replayability and advanced AI, which selects the best strategy based on behavior, not a predetermined script.
  • Advanced management of forces in the operational phase: reinforcement strategies and management of reserves.
  • Statistics keeping: performance of each unit is recorded (kills, losses, awards, etc.). After each battle, damages and condition of forces and vehicles are shown in the after battle statistics.
  • Battlefield simulation: realistic vision devices, smoke screens and flares, creation of trenches, explosion craters. Remnants of previous battles remain on the battlefield until the end of operation.
  • Realistic soldier behavior: each soldier has several essential parameters, such as experience level, stamina and morale, which influence their behavior and effectiveness.
  • Detailed weapon modeling and realistic ballistics: bullets and projectiles follow ballistic trajectories, taking wind, temperature and other parameters into account.
  • Advanced armor penetration: modeling based on ballistic histograms without simplifications of probabilistic methods, generation of secondary fragmentation fields takes into account many parameters, such as the change of the field shape in space, fragments and armor characteristics, armor thickness and damage conditions.
  • Complex vehicle damage system: engine, suspension, sights, weapons and targeting mechanisms can be damaged separately, affecting the combat capabilities.
  • Destructible environment: almost everything can be blown up and destroyed, from landscape surface and buildings to vehicles and enemy defensive installations.
  • Advanced control of the off-map artillery, featuring various fuse settings and shell types.
  • Formation and movement modes: lines and columns, movement by road and covertly, infantry following behind tanks, setting a delay, fire sectors, etc.
  • Automatic smoke screen laying: units set up smoke screens when enemy is spotted.
  • Dynamic change of the time of day, light sources and weather effects, influence the course of battle, visibility and area passability.

Also, you can view detailed info on each unit in the interactive encyclopedia. Interactive tutorial explaining most aspects of the game is included.

Graviteam Tactics: Mius-Front reviews and comments

Translated by
Microsoft from Deutsch
"Graviteam Tactics: Mius Front." Behind this idiosyncratic Name lies nothing less than the latest Installment In the gripping "Achtung Panzer" Franchise. About three Years Ago, the Series was renamed Graviteam Tactics. Whether this can be traced back to the Ego of the Ukrainian Developers Graviteam, or if necessary has copyright reasons, I cannot say exactly. But I think I have read that Paradox Interactive-one of the Last Publishers of the series-had anchored some Addition in the small print And now has the Rights to the old Serial Name ... I don't want to go into The details of the Game itself. Here I recommend my Test to the Predecessor: http://www.7idgaming.de/content.php?140-Matrix-Games-Achtung-Panzer-Operation-Star-REVIEW. The Game principle has remained the Same. In fact, the control and interface have improved. I wouldn't go that far and claim it's now optimal and super Entry-level friendly, no. But I would say that we can cope with it relatively quickly. From the Campaigns themselves, I would have liked a little more. With it would have preferred they had fallen out longer than with "Operation Star." At Mius-Front there are two Germans and two Soviet Campaigns to Choose from. The shorter German Campaign is likely to have ended in around 10 Hours of play. The longer ones in maybe 25 Hours. On the historical Background, I simply quote the official Wikipedia Entry: "The Donez Mius offensive was a Soviet military Operation during the Second World War on the German-Soviet Front. Between July 17 and August 2, 1943, there were major Battles between the Red Army and the Wehrmacht on the Donez and Mius rivers. The Goal of the Soviet Southwest and Southern Front was to force the German Leadership to withdraw associations of the Citadel company Near Kursk and to reclaim the economically important Donetsk Basin. After small Initial successes, however, the German Army Group Süd succeeded in capturing the Soviet Offensive and restoring the old Front Line in places. " In addition to the improved Interface, the Game is particularly suitable for Newcomers to the Series because, as a German, you are mainly in Defence and can dig in relatively well on some slight Heights. So you can work your way into the Subtleties of the Game step by step and also enjoy the wonderful Slaughter Atmosphere, which is simply unparalleled. No other Strategy Game can reach the Water for the Series here. The Action on the Battlefield had even moved my Wife the other day to settle down next to my Monitor in amazement and watch the whole Thing, rather than weathering over the droning volume of the Battle Hustle And bustle. Light Track, Grenade impacts and Despair on a Front length of three Kilometers I just say ... As a New Entrant, working through the individual Tutorials, which can be found under "Quick Battles," is a Must. But you can do Without "Surprise me" and "Meeting Engagement." Plan two Hours for one here. Unfortunately, the Tutorials take getting used to. Sometimes I thought it didn't go on. Something just pulls up, so don't get nervous. If you Have these through, you should be Able to deploy at least your Troops sensibly in the Field. However, the Handling of the Troops on the Strategic Map as well as their Management (Reserve, Replacement, etc.) via the unit and Division lists are hardly made understandable. That comes with Time, though, don't Worry. Another small defensive Drop Is the lack Of a Multiplayer. The Series would almost offer itself for this. But what is not can still come. So. If you really fancy epic and gripping World War Battles, you should strike here. Miu's Front can still be purchased for €22.39 until July 4th. After that, the Title again costs £31.99. Either way, the Game is worth the Amount requested. The Previous Title "Operation Star" currently costs only around €4 in the Sale. But Beware! Due to the Interface, the initial Frustration Factor can be expected here. Preparing to go straight to the new Part. My complete Test is here: http://www.7idgaming.de/content.php?262-Graviteam-Tactics-Mius-Front P.S. Am also on the road at Steam as a Curator and am happy about every Follower: http://store.steampowered.com/curator/2370797-7IDGaming.de/?appid=275290
