    Anyone want to sell this game? It got no attention in the Selling thread so I thought it might be better here.

    Got this afterall.


    Pretty tough game, hard to get in to as well. Anyone play it around here?

    tried it but gave up pretty quickly. Steep learning curve and something else grabbed my attention. Haven't tried it since. supposed to be very good. Maybe I'm just an eye-candy whore.

    I picked it up the other day, but haven't got it installed yet. The first had a fairly steep learning curve, and I don't expect this one to be any easier. This is one game where you really do need to RTFM :D

    I quite enjoy the game, although there is a lot to take in, and one thing I don't like is the fact that you dont know what your enemy divisions are or what strength they are. It will just tell you there are 5 divisions... but what? Tanks, infantry, farmers with pitchforks?

    Playing as Germany I've taken over a lot of Europe, but am at a lockdown situation since the Soviets and the Western allies will kick my arse if I attempt to invade another country. If you look at the sleeping giant of Russia on the map, and it's many provinces you will see why I'm reluctant to piss off Stalin. ;)

    Production takes a long time and coordinating air and navy with ground attacks is a nightmare.. if it was more 'civ-like' it would be better, but still enjoyable if you have the stomach for a completely in-depth war game.
