No screenies here, I will try to take some later on.
I run the game on med settings and looks realy nice.
You want tactics - you have them in this game. I've just played a mission in Carentan - the player is to defend the town and capture some supply points. We have 3 bridges to defend, extra supply points are on the other bank of the river.
It is adviceable to build some strong points on each of the directions of eventual German assault - they've got armor- Panzers, StuGs.
I built some sandbags to hide my 57mm AT guns behind them, as a protection from lsmall caliber weapons and shrapnels, also some barbed wire to slower movement of enemy infantry.each main eventual way of enemy strike I covered with heavy MGs and snipers.
It all worked quite nicely, I had some serious losses though, when they broke one of my blocades and I had quickly to withdraw one of my 57s to a different spot to get rid of enemy tank Apart from that I had a squad or two of engineers upgraded with flame throwers
It is a really nice tactical game, flanking, surpressing fire, granades, satchels, guns, mortars, everything is here. I waseven able to call artillery support, gee, this really makes a hell on earth.
Great thing is when you capture enemy's Mg, you can make your people take it and place it somewhere else, so you can pour some BG42 lead on the Jerries.
This game is really great, try the demo and see for yourself.
I will also check thegame "Faces of War", by 1C Maddox Games, which is coming very soon here. And increadibly cheap as we;;.. It looks really nice, has some similar features as CoH, ioncluding destructable enviroment, and so on. It is to be released by Ubisoft in the West.
Faces of WAr looks like this
here is the website of this very promisingtitle.
