The game unlike Panzer General, does not offer you animations in terms of the happenings of the wars but still the user interface is good enough. Your mission will be conquer different territories and advance on and will have to use hardcore strategy elements to your benefit. To name a few, you have Nazi Germany and USSR. The exciting aspect in the game is that you will be the commander of one of the great nations that participated in the World War 2. The plot is the same as you find with many strategy games based on the World War 2. It is one of those turn based strategy games which though do not offer you much but still has that element of catering your attraction.
Hardcore strategy game with diverse elements Throw in a clever 'What if?' scenario designer and you have a complex and addictive historical strategy game that really delivers the goods. However, the game is compelling enough to ensure players will stick with it, requiring as it does some deep tactical thinking.
The interface is also nice and accessible, making this one a good choice for newcomers to the genre, but don't expect an easy ride as the AI here is pretty tough. Battles are decided on dice rolls, with units having attack and defense values and which determine how likely they are to defeat their enemy, and this is a system which works nicely thanks to its relative simplicity and speed. Each of the scenarios represent a different aspect of warfare, requiring different tactics to complete successfully, but it isn't all about combat, with resource management also coming into play. The game plays out in turn-based fashion, with players choosing their side (from the USSR, Japan, Germany, Britain and the US), selecting their troops and vehicles, including tanks, aircraft and submarines, and then engaging in several unique scenarios to prove their skills at command. This Iron Blitz edition adds in several features which expand on its predecessor and make it a fine addition to any strategy buff's collection.
