I bought this game on a whim, and so far I'm not regretting it!

Most fascinating for me is the ease of scenario creation: Randomise a map, the edit it to add a bit of flavour. All done in a matter of minutes.

The concept of units and having control over their exact composition is also a fresh idea that I like.

All in all, the perfect middle ground between World At War (Axis and Allies on steroids) and War in the Pacific (Hardcore simulations). And as far as I can see on these boards, it's still fairly active. :)

Glad you like it. So, it destroyed your social life too hm? j/k.
It covers indeed perfectly the middle ground between WaW and WiTP. It may look quite simple at the beginning, but once you get into it... awesome.
Mods and scenarios are plenty, promising a zillion hours of gameplay, well worth the � I paid for it. Did you already check out the scenario depot? Cpt Crufts scenario to just name one... and there are many others very worthwhile.
Have fun.

No, not yet, but I'll remember to do so. As a software developer more or less my first step was to check out the event system. :D
