WW2: General Commander

[LCJr.]

<strong>[ Announcement ]</strong>

<p>Saw this game awhile back but couldn't find much info on it.  Developers <a href="http://www.gamesgi.com/" target="_blank">Games GI</a> are Spanish and the publisher French.  As far as I know it's only available through <a href="http://www.stragames.com/" target="_blank">Stragames.</a> </p><blockquote><p><span class="news_text">WWII: General Commander is a new concept on RTS; based on the Operational board games, Games GI has developed a simple but addictive game play that is able to simulate the WWII combats.

WWII: GC. Operation: Watch on the Rhine is the first of several scenes that will cover the most important bellicose settings of WWII. The Battle of the Bulge helps us to introduce a new concept of game play, but more than anything it&rsquo;s a game to be played online, challenging one against another in the many scenarios that will be available, or to even create new ones to share with other players.</span></p></blockquote>Much more info, including DRM, available in this <a href="http://www.wargamer.com/forums/tm.aspx?m=320037" target="_blank">thread on The Wargamer forum. </a> <p> </p>

I would like to hear more first hand experiences.

Right now it looks like right in the middle between RTS and tactical wargame genres, and as both are incompatible, I bet a lot of people from both camps will hate it. There is already discussion on wargamer about the speed. It has DRM and activations too, so wait until you can dl a no activation patch.
