I have War in the East and War in the West. Enjoy both. I'm not a grognard but I found these games relatively easy to get into.

I know this game is massive and super deep.

Is it relatively easy to get into though? Are there smaller scenarios that help you learn? Is the interface similar to WiTE and WiTW or clunkier?

Are you married? The all-consuming nature of the game is hard on a relationship. You can still order it but just remember if WITP wanted you to have a wife they would’ve issued you one.

If you can wait a bit, Matrix often has WitP-AE on discount sale for Peal Harbor anniversary and Xmas.

This is a good point.

The game is perfect for a long haul diplomatic package courier who has a lot of time waiting/transiting.

And a USB point handy.

does this game follow a historical script or can the user decide his own objectives?

You can decide what you want to do. As Japan, you can decide not to attack the Allies but they will attack you.

Thanks for the reply! I was looking at CMANO and we was thinking of getting that game and then they announce CMO which is going to be down the road a bit so I figured I would take a look at this one. I've always enjoyed most everything ww2.
