Wargaming Newby with a quick question !


Recommended Posts

Just started, came from console gaming. Bought Strategic Command and love it ! Will there be a Strategic Command 2 ??

What games are similar to it ?

PS Note to Battlefront - how nice it was to install the game and have no problems, easy menus system, great manuals - great job !

All we know at the moment is that there WILL be a Strategic Command 2. Other than that, they have not given us very many details. We don't even know if it will be based on the European Theater, Pacific Theater, or on a world scale.

Glad you enjoy the game and hope to play you sometime.

The Underdogs has a free download of Third Reich PC available. There is an active community of 3R players. Third Reich PC is a faithful adaptation of the Avalon Hill boardgame and has a half-decent AI, but the AI has its limitations. 3R has seasonal turns and only covers the European theater.

ADG has a free beta demo of Computer World in Flames available. Like 3R, there is an active community of WiF players. Computer WiF is also a faithful adaptation of the boardgame but has no AI. WiF has 2-month turns with variable impulses and a worldwide map for fighting either the European or Pacific campaigns, or both.

Both games are more complex than Strategic Command but offer interesting perspectives on simulating WWII at the grand strategy level.

As you may have seen me say before, but it doesn't hurt to say again, between xwormwood and Bill Macon, you have 95% of the last twenty-five (25) years or so of WWII Grand Strategy and Strategy games. With a couple of Strategy/Operational ones thrown in there as well.

If you counted the Operational/Tactical ones, you would have many many more.
