War in the East 2 Out Now on Steam

War in the East2 is the most comprehensive, most realistic, and most advanced wargame modeling Eastern Front warfare in World War Two.

The Eastern Front, the most decisive theatre of World War II and the largest land battlefield. A fight to the end, Total War between the Third Reich and the Soviet Union, each commanding millions.
The legendary wargame team at 2by3 Games has spent years revisiting this titanic conflict to once again establish a new state of the art.

Gary Grigsby’s War in the East 2 is a complete overhaul and improvement of the original War in the East, with no stone left unturned to provide a more realistic, more historically rich, and more challenging strategy experience. War in the East 2 comes with a wide array of scenarios ranging from the short tutorial on the Battle for Velikie Luki, to the four month Destruction of Southwest Front, up to the immense full 1941 – 1945 Grand Campaign of the entire Eastern front from Operation Barbarossa to the fall of Berlin. A total of seven Operational Scenarios and three Full Map Campaigns await you with hundreds, if not thousands, of hours of historical gameplay.

Thanks again, Loki.

Now I remember doing this with IL2.

In fact you need to click on "ADD A GAME" in the bottom left of the main Steam window and then click on "Activate a Product on Steam".

Enter the Product Code/Serial Key and it will start downloading WitE2.

Appreciate your help.

Now I'll get back to trying to win Op. Typhoon as the Axis for the umpteenth time...
