Germany at War - Soviet Dawn Reviews

This is indeed a hidden gem. If you can live with the somewhat poor presentation you get a game that evolves and gets better and better the more you play. This is not a puzzler like so many others, but gives you much more operational freedom and makes you think real hard for a good plan. Its very customisable and will keep you entertained for many hours. The biggest campaign is nearly 30 scenarios long and you take your core units with you - indeed almost all units are core units and you can buy, rename, refit your units and get attached to them. Fight all the way to the east.. it is a rewarding experience and labour of love!

Germany At War: Soviet Dawn is a turn-based operational wargame that boasts a strong historical focus, guiding players through all critical stages of the conflict, with 9 campaigns and 20 single scenarios that sometimes extend beyond. The game features two major campaigns, one for each side, allowing players to command either German forces through a branching historical campaign encompassing the entire 1941 campaign and part of the 1942 campaign, or assume the Soviet banner to defend against invaders and exact revenge in 1944/45. Units accumulate experience and historical upgrades, while new equipment becomes available on a historical schedule as players progress. The game offers an addictive combination of compelling gameplay, realistic events, and challenging battles, allowing players to rewrite history through their performance. Additional stand-alone scenarios cover famous battles with historical orders of battle, requiring players to utilize different formations and equipment to achieve mission goals. Units and maps are represented at realistic scales, with combat, movement, and terrain systems based on real capabilities. Aimed at all levels, from those who have never played a wargame before to those who know the history of World War II in detail, this is an entertaining and challenging game of combined arms strategy. The game is actually done very well,Graphics are really good if not dated, sound effects some music it's all on par for World War II game. This is actually a hidden gem that's been under the radar and not too many people know about definitely one I would recommend it is a lot of fun little basic but definitely fun. 8.5/10

[h1]Germany at War - Soviet Dawn[/h1] [i]Only just started ( i understand it's an older game - 2013 moved from Matrix to Steam ) and i love the options given - lots of settings to choose and customize your gameplay experience - clean presentation on map , ultra wide screen support , different units ( ranging from battalions to divisions ) - the abbility to switch to nato symbols + fog of war = a winning combination for me - hope the AI is competent enough ;-D - totally recommended for ww2 turn based fans ![/i]
