Gary Grigsby's World At War gives you the chance to really run a world war. History is yours to write and things may turn out differently. The Western Allies may be conquered by Germany, or Japan may defeat China. With you at the controls, leading the fates of nations and alliances. Take command in this dynamic turn-based game and test strategies that long-past generals and world leaders could only dream of. Now anything is possible in this new strategic offering from Matrix Games and 2 by 3 Games.

It just went up FYI, it's a good read but it alludes to the fact that a "manual" is needed to enjoy the full potential of gameplay. Alot of icons used need reference to the manual as not all of them, and there are many, are covered by in game "tooltips". It sounds like WAW will be THE WW2 medium-level strategic game we all hoped for[:D]. I just changed my EB order to next-day shipping...let the die roll [&o]
Note:I was going to dd & retail but opted for 2 copies in a box...1 for the TheHellPatrol Jr.[;)]

I was disappointed to read the German AI always attacks Norway first [&:]

It doesn't attack Norway all the time. I'm pretty sure there is a chance that it won't attack Norway on turn 1.
