This tactical game focuses on micro management of different groups on various scenarios on the battlefield. It consists of three campaigns, for Russia, Germany and the United States. Missions are varied and consist of goals such as establishing a beach head, infiltrating an area, and more, mixing battles with gunfire with a more stealthy approach.

Bear in mind when you're playing, you'll rarely get the chance to replace downed men. What you start a mission with is usually what you finish with, so caution is advised. Graphically, Men of War is pleasant enough and it'll run on most systems. Some slowdown occurs on the more congested maps, but most of the time the game plays smoothly.

The audio isn't a problem - until the characters speak. The voice-acting really, really doesn't work and you actually feel embarrassed to be listening to it. This is a shame, because as a strategy game, very few titles reach the epic scale and excitement of Men of War's biggest battles. If you loved Soldiers, you'll love this. If you've no idea what that game was about, try a demo of this. And while the AI is improved, it still can be frustrating to see them get themselves killed doing something incredibly stupid.

Support-wise, the game has a variety of publishers which has led to a disaster of a first patch. I have hope that this will get better with additional patches. Overall, Men of War is a must have for any strategy gaming enthusiast and World War II fan, especially those who enjoy a simulation.

And while not as 'easy' to pickup as Company of Heroes, those that do will find the experience much more rewarding. Unfortunately, this title, like the ones before it, may be the best title that no one buys. Hopefully the increasing availability of it over previous games in the series, such as it being available on Direct2Drive and Steam increases it's popularity.

This review contains spoilers , click expand to view. Having played Soldiers: Heroes of World War 2, its unknown sequel Silent Heroes, Faces of War, and completed every single mission of this game in medium, I can say safely that these games are diamonds if you look for a real challenge.

These games were truly made to test your patience, reflexes and nerves. They are not made for the casual RTS gamer. He will hate them for their difficulty.

Reloading a specific point 15 times to get through it is very exhausting. Consider these factors before your try these games. Many people come here and whine about them, but the plain true is that they were not made for this challenge. Even the veterans confess that the game sometimes becomes infuriating due to its almost impossible difficulty. And they are right. If someone claims that he found this game relaxing and easy he is a liar. The odds and the numbers will always speak of your defeat.

Your crushing defeat. The quickness required to make it is almost unachievable. Some random flamethrower appears from nowhere and burns something you hold dear The problem is that you cannot be everywhere all the time. But when you make it and destroy all the enemy forces with your own hand You will like it when your shot destroys only the turret of the enemy tank.

And this is mainly achieved with direct control. Direct control is your saviour in difficult situations. You can chose where to move, how to rotate, where and when to shoot. Last but not least about the game's difficulty. The stealth missions. AI's patrols choose random ways to walk. You cannot predict them like in other games. They may discover a corpse in a place you thought they would never go.

You have to kill everyone with knives and away from everyone else. You will see how impossible it is when reinforcements arrive and see all the corpses you have left behind, when the dead will scream and his comrades will hear it, when some random light will catch you and so on.

Stealth missions for me are the hardest. In fact, stealth missions are the hardest in reality. I have never been in war personally, but I have 1 thing to say to all these crying about the game being unrealistically hard. Klawzevits said that war is rarely battles.

Most of the time is marching and logistics: food, ammunition, fixing bridges etc. So do not cry. Imagine the next game to have food and other survival factors in it. Good they do their job, they could have been better. Physics: 9. Watching an operating tank being upside-down from a strong explosion is a lol thing. Walls falling wand hitting the infantry under them is a nice detail. Need to say more?

Sound: Rofl Mute the game like everyone and put some music. Storyline: Who cares Trust me, I do not care and none really does. Nowadays the games are too many to get intrigued in one's story. It happened only twice on last allied mission who cares, it was the last one after all and the 4th bonus mission. Pissed, I wanted to play the 5th as well. The game will take you in many places that are not memorised in other ww2 games. As a Greek loved the 1st German mission in Crete.

It was tough as hell with all these SMG's, but there is always a way to make it if you try and think. Then Africa. Rommel, Italian destroyer, sandstorm hiding sounds and much more. The devs understood that simply repeating D-Day would not help. The game is rewarding only the hardcore gamers.

Not only a tough stealth pre-mission, but a main battle where you had to take some heavily fortified hills. Try it and cry. If you are casual go away. Above my expectation! Men of War had everything to be one of the best Real Time Tactics games, but failed at it because of many details, all summed up make the game Men of War had everything to be one of the best Real Time Tactics games, but failed at it because of many details, all summed up make the game annoying and frustrating.

I love strategy games, the more detail the better, but when a game asks me to take care of a large battle and manage soldiers with such detail that I have to search enemy bodies for ammo for every single one of my soldiers The AI is a mix of amazing and frustration, but I give a thumbs up here, the AI behaved fairly decently most of the time, but even then you better save often because while you micromanage some soldiers in the right, your only tank in the left might decide to move forward for whatever reason and die miserably.
