  • Cheers to 2x2 Games for giving me early access to the game.
    Honestly, after playing loads of WW2 wargames that just have awful controls, it's really nice to play one where it's really simple to play and just complex to master. Obviously I've got a lot to learn but Unity of Command is honestly good fun. Just wish the tutorial was better.

    First of all rimmy play the game more, but also if you right click on the game in your steam library somehwere in that menu there should be an option for "view manual". Sometimes devs put nice easter eggs there.

      Why won't they? I see that smart. At 1st I was frustrated and then, holy sht, that was good. And made me realize I was playing the 1st game wrong. Nope you don't win by eleminating the enemy. You win if made them starve. And it became a big game of snake between me and the AI trying to cut our tails off. Literally almost every time I played Unity of Command: Red Turn is a Soviet trying to steal supplies from the Nazis. Where almost all turns I'm looking at a red and black lines parallel to each other and whoever breaks the line wins. And it's not easy to recover from. I restarted entire games when I saw my red line broke.

    I remember playing the first one! Had quite a shock when I ended my first turn and watched the Germans just completely tear my mistakes to shreds. (Also funny because their first action was to *pull out* of Stalingrad, meaning the devs designed an AI with a better strategic sense than Hitler).

    The italians didn't have a lot going for them in ground battles, but they _did_ have what was probably the world's best mountain troops at the time. After WW1, many countries basically prepared to fight the same war again only more so, and for Italy that meant mountain battles, so that's what they poured most of their training and resources into. So fighting them entrenched in rough hill/mountain terrain...yeah, that's gonna be a Bad Time :P.

    Hey Rimmy,
    if you go into your steam library and right click on the game title, in the context menu there should be a "Read the user manual" option. There is one for Warlock Master of Arcane for me on steam. Similar story for games on GOG, you expand context menu and go to Backup&Goodies and there should be a Manual.
