Thank you all for the kind reply! I love world war 2 history!

I love world war 2 strategy games and I heard this is the best game out there. But going on steam and reading some of the negative reviews I am a bit worried. Many of the negative reviews says the "AIR WAR" does not work! If that is the case then should I still buy this game? Please help me!

What about watching the AI autoplay?

Hi all, I love world war 2 and strategy games, but this game seems very daunting and unbelievably complexed. I only have limited time. Because I don't have enough time to play, what about just watching AI auto play? Can I do that? And how competent is the AI in that regard?

Hence we need a overall statistic of enemy losses. This statistic should also be more detailed like total men killed, total tank kill, artillery etc.

The combat charts show you enemy losses. It's just like real life in that you don't have a computer spitting out the numbers. You have to add stuff. [;)]

Hello, I play mostly Heart of Iron 4, Europa Universals 4, Crusader King 2 and most recently Operation Art of War 4. I heard this game can be brutal difficult. I am no chess grandmaster, if it is that hard I am too scared to get it!

This goes back to my earlier post this week asking for victory/casualty dialog screens. Seems like a basic window for a strategy war game.<br/>

<t> as I see it the micromanagement can be reduced with better UI. For example we need a button that tells us where all the artillery, army, HQ, etc. We need a button telling us which unit are not moved. We need a button that allow us to DIG in for lets say all HQ or tactical reserve all artillery ...

<t> Well I really don't mind large amount of unit and I am indeed having fun, but what I hate is mindless micromanagement, right now what I hate most is dig in, tactical reserve or local reserve. We have three opinions here, which one do I chose? and I have to do this for all unit. This really is ...
