What if Steel Tigers isn't as good as Field of Glory 2. I think Field of Glory 2 has set the standard of what we expect in a wargame now. Good game with good AI. I can hardly play anything else now with a socalled AI.

What's yer thoughts?

Field of Glory 2 has probably set a new standard as to graphics and interface, which are amazing indeed, but I cannot say the same as to gameplay (I still consider Field of Glory better ) . I therefore hope for Steel Tigers a good balance between graphics and gameplay.

But, you are in a crowd of the few that prefer FoG1 over FoG2.

I wouldn't play FoG1 if Matrix/Slitherine paid me and gave me a free copy of "Steel Tigers", well maybe Steel Tigers but, I'd only play it once just to get the free game of Steel Tigers.

I'm simply in the crowd of the few who have both games

You are just talking about graphics

but anyway you are right when you say " I wouldn't play Fog1 ..." becouse if you did you could experience some unexpected surprises comparing the 2 games ;)

Lots of people have both games, and there are a lot more differences than graphics. In particular, the combat system has been reworked to make modifiers more granular, resulting in fewer extreme results. At least that is what they say, still getting a feel for FOG2.

Field of Glory 2 is definitely a very good game: the work did about graphics , interface and P vs Ai mode is very good, but from a simply gameplay prospective the game has been quite streamlined, there are several combat variables and mechanics missing from FoG 1 and this lack is particulary clear when you play vs another player. I was looking for a long for FoG 2, bought it, and played a lot for the first week, now I'm back to my FoG1 multiplayer challenges

I played quite a bit of multi-player FOG1 when the game came out, but haven't played in several years, so don't remember all of the details. Which variables and mechanics are you missing in FOG2?

Ummm if you could read I said I wouldn't
"PLAY" Fog1 if they paid me or gave me a free game of Steel Tigers. I bought it long time ago and saw how "terrible" it was (especially the ai) iggy.

I can easily compare the greatness of FoG2 vs Fog1; there's really no comparison. FoG2 by 100x fold in every way possible.
