Sure,
It was like a regular campaign, but it was much more elaborate. There were many more different paths that you could take to victory. Many more battles to fight, you could lose some and still win the campaign. But the best part was that you had to make descisions BEFORE the battles took place. You could get intel that was detailed, or not so detailed ( if the intel was even true). You could call up reserves, or leave them alone. You could use special forces and fight a special battle with them to achive a certain objective. But all of this costs points, so you have to be carefull.
Example:
In Operation Husky, the first thing you had to do was decide to use you Special Forces or not to take a Pier intact. If you succeed, your invasion forces would be better supplied when they landed. If you fail, the Italians would be aware of your upcomming amphibious assault, and would be better prepaired for you. I chose not to take the pier. It cost me about six battles later when the Germans came in with their armor and I had almost none because the pier was destroyed by the Italians. No pier, no armor.
That kind of stuff, a descison you made in battle one comes back to kill you in battle six.
I had a blast with it. You can replay a campaign over and over and fight different battles each time. But I imagine if they did it now, It would probably have even more stuff. The Matrix team is just a tad more advanced then things were for the original Steel panthers.
I hope its true.
