[Comparison to Close Combat]

The strength of CC is infantry play, so much so that the Marine Corps uses a custom version of it for training. It begins to get silly, though, when too many vehicles, more than two or three, are included in a scenario.

While the (several) developers of ToW attempted to build some cool infantry play into the game, I think that it's strength is clearly armour play. Because of this, I believe that a better comparison is with Combat Mission.

But at least infantry units in CM series are more useful than those in ToW......

At 1280x1024, with FSAA at 4X and details at maximum level (even thick grass) the demo runs very well.

Hey,are you the same Aries over @ ACG and gamesquad forum?

If yes I thought you have a rather antique PC,judging on the impression from your posts?

AMD Athlon64X2 4200+

NVIDIA GeForce 7600 GS-512MB

Select medium setting for most part,the demo is running fluidly and in fact loading time is even faster than Europa Universalis 3~~~

I thought, "man he's never played Barbarossa to Berlin has he?" Wow, truely amazing. That was really great stuff Crazy. No pun intended though

Oh crap, I'm sorry, did I miss the sign up sheet for the elite gamers club on the way in? Don't talk down to me like I am some kind of moron that can't have an opinion because I haven't played the same games as you.

To assume I am simply a "button masher" is a pretty poor response. No offense, I don't care what your grandpa did, as it has no relevance to this post or topic.

I knew there would be one person who eventually had to go off on CoH rant.

This person however has lit enough of a fire under my ass to allow me to say what I want straight out without sugar coating it because as I can see now, there are a lot of people here that are simply not going to listen, or care.</font>
