Officers - The Matrix Edition puts you in command of the Allied force in the largest conflict of our time. Take control of the US and British armies in order to strike back and defeat the Axis menace on the Western front of Europe. With over 1500 units on maps up to 10 square miles, Officers is the first WWII real time strategy game to let you fight on a truly massive scale. Historical battles like Operation Overlord, Millennium, and Cobra will put your tactical skills to the test using combined forces from infantry and engineers to tanks, artillery and bombers. The Matrix Edition is an enhanced release with additional fixes and improvements that cannot be found elsewhere.

For those just looking in now, I would like to emphasize that most of the previous commentary in this forum and the GameSpot review noted above are talking about a different release of Officers, which came out much earlier than ours and unfortunately appears to have been a rushed release. As far as we are concerned, our release should be judged on its own merits.

I might be mistaken, but the German release of Officers was quite a while after the first release of the game. Thus, there is probably no way of speaking about a "rushed release".

There is an older demo here on gamespot.

I installed it but the demo would freeze as the graphics loaded. My machine met the minimum specs so I'm a bit worried that if I bought it whether I could enjoy the graphics. It's an 3-4 year old demo and I trust that matrix is marketing a stable version and I might just pick this game up for a change of pace.

I thought it froze on my PC too, when it got to the screen with a Pause button in the center. Nothing told me to press a key, click, nothing. I finally figured it out that I needed to press the spacebar.
