Sudden Strike Gold Reviews

First off I have waaaayyy more hours then stream is aware of. I play the HD version found online. But I got to leave a review for this masterpiece. It’s one of my favorite games I go back to it almost every year for a play through. It’s just that fun. So what exactly is it? Well your a general given a set number of tanks, infantry, and aircraft with a mission. There is no base building or building up resources. Just commanding your troops to typically destroy the enemy, hold and objective, or capture an area- and the game is brutally hard. Like you will lose a lot, the game can really drag. Some missions you really need to just slowly extend the frontline. Yet despite all this it’s just so much fun, it feels like you actually accomplished something. Over time if you play it as much as I have you remember where things are, what the enemy has and where they are placed. While this doesn’t make the game easier, but it makes it faster. It’s fantastic. Defense missions are some of my favorites, as they can be impossible or bare able depending on your strategy. If you set up just a single defensive line you are going to get crushed. This ai figures out where your heavy guns are at and you get shelled. You need to have a layer defense with some units just taking the roll of speed bumps to delay the enemy. Fantastic game.

I love this game, I was playing it when I was a 10 year old in 2001, and now again many years later. Quite amazing that I got pretty far in the game when I was so young because its really difficult. Now I did finish the German campaign, Russian campaign, and at the end of the USA campaign, all on medium. Think the most difficult is the USA one, they don't have really good heavy tanks. My advice is to read some guides on steam, because there is a reasonable learning curve. Also I noticed that the enemy has sometimes vision without units at the sides of the map, if you can't proceed there go more to the middle.
