One of the things I don't like about Order of battle, is how long each scenario takes to play. These are LONG games for what is a pretty simple game.<br/>
Can be two hours or more in before realising all the choices made at the beginning were ...

Depends. Battle Academy, it is basically Chess.<br/>
<br/>
Ah dang, you just took out my queen!<br/>
<br/>
For those that think Battle Academy is simple, "oh really, what is your win-loss record?"<br/>

I like Gary's big ...

<t> I prefer WITE approach, it has complex guts but play simple, if you have basic knowledge of wargaming and military operation of ww2, you can jump easily without getting hassled with interface learning or mechanism understanding, I can add Command Ops 2 also. <br/>
My second preference is ...

Matrix is happiness, Matrix is life [:D]

Released today, thats scary as the area is really going hot, I am here in Dubai, not far from the action that could happen ....

Me too just got it from Matrix store, great price BTW.

hmmm, worth to use for new titles, shifting sand? English Civil War? The Tide Turns? or Carrier Deck?
I will think through the weekend...

I just hope the steel tiger graphics will be 1:1 and not abstracted.

<t> Thanks Zakblood, I am always in search for computer wargame with friction and as you said I found it well presented in DC:B, also in FPC:RS, I never played Brothers against brothers well get it when I have the chance, I think I can add to the list Command Ops as well. <br/>
Any more games add ...

Your thought?

I won as well, thanks matrix, I want to give money to matrix though, so I will buy the boxed one and another copy for my brother.

I dont know which flavor of Cheetos I will have with the game tomorrow

Got a DLC, really cheap for new release to be honest

Thanks nice read, cant wait for the game, this is indeed the game of the year for me.
And I agree with article the Q4 we will have huge titles coming from Matrix/ Slithriene.

Arm chair general still alive but they dont review computer wargame much now, they are more focused on boardgame these days.

More focused on simulation however, but friendly forum and good updates on many wargames. <br/>

<t> Nice question aaatoysandmore, cause I categorize my games on steam by the historic eras, <br/>
So here are mine: <br/>
Early Ancient/ Greek: Hegemony Gold <br/>
Early Roman: Hegemony 3 Clash of the Ancients<br/>
Late Roman: Alea Jacta Est <br/>
Dark Ages: Crusader Kings 2<br/>
Renaissance ...

<t> The only advantage I see in OoB is the supply which is better represented and allow strategy of cut off etc.. but everything else PC is doing it better, the welldone scenarios design, AI is a bit better in PC, the amount and variety of units/ maps/ factions and of course the faster game play ...

I agree on strategic command 3 also can get close to DC:B

I will echo Decisive Campaigns: Barbarossa
