Actually, cluster munitions can be delivered by artillery in the form of ICMs for anti-armor purposes.

+1 Decisive Campaigns. I would always recommend either Blitzkrieg or Case Blue as deep, but streamlined alternatives to the monster games.

<t> I like the concept of observation balloons. Perhaps they could still be included not as standalone units, but as an ability abstracted into the infantry divisions. Maybe the result of a research upgrade, they could act as a temporary LOS bonus for an infantry unit, that could in turn be ...

+1 Steel Panthers

<t> Kirk, I wonder if there is some way to turn your patch into a mod, and just skip the 'official' process. Your work reflects a genuine passion for the game that is so obviously lacking among the people in charge. It boggles my mind that after 4+ months of waiting for this...with delay after ...

Thanks to everyone! Been eagerly awaiting this day [:D]

Yeah, it's unfortunate. I couldn't even find a Let's Play or anything on youtube. I would think the developer would at least want to put out a trailer or something.

So is Piercing Fortress Europa not very good, then? I see no buzz about the sale, and the forum for the game seems fairly dead. Its been hard for me to find much solid info about this game and its current state.

<t> As someone recently in your exact position, I would strongly recommend Decisive Campaigns: Blitzkrieg From Warsaw to Paris. It is an excellent next step up in complexity (HQs, supply lines, etc.) without hitting you with a massive learning curve. Commander: The Great War and Unity of Command are ...

Can this be played well against the AI? Or is it mainly meant for MP?

Is this a patch? How does one play with these new changes?

Note that OP is spam.

Great review, thanks for posting. Good info to consider when deciding whether to take the plunge or not.

the game offers windowed mode which works fine - just tested it.<br/>
also the games default is the 1024x768,- which looks fine on my wider screen laptop, but whats better is that if you select advance options, you can manually enter ...

Anyone have any idea about the resolution in Carriers at War? Gonna wild guess it as fixed 1024x768, but can it be played windowed?

<r> You'll most likely have better luck asking over at the AGEOD forums.<br/>

For what it's worth, Grave of the Fireflies (Studio Ghibli) is one of the greatest war movies I've ever seen.
