Description
The Matrix version is the Gold Edition of the Original Strategic Command: Blitzkrieg and Weapons and Warfare combined. It also contains the Pacific Theatre and Patton Drives East DLCs

Combining the ease of play, accessibility and addicting gameplay, Strategic Command Classic: World War II adds tons of features in a single game.

Weapons and Warfare (the expanded & enhanced version of the original Blitzkrieg)

Rewrite history with 6 full length, open ended campaigns beginning at key stages of World War II. Begin the war from the historical invasion of Poland in 1939, Denmark and Norway in 1940, Russia in 1941, Stalingrad in 1942, the invasion of Sicily by the Allies in 1943 or the epic beach landings of D-Day in 1944.
Five additional mini-campaigns included, North Afrika, Kursk, D-Day, Market Garden, and the Battle of the Bulge each with clearly defined victory conditions and turn limits.
Also includes the brand new mini campaigns: 1941-42 Battle for Moscow, 1944 Operation Cobra, 1944 Petsamo-Kirkenes Operation

This version with Weapons and Warfare with Blitzkrieg incorporates a huge list of features covering multiple units, terrain types, land and naval combat and a powerful editor with the ability to add in scripted Image and Sound events and much more.

Pacific
For the first time, players will be able to wage war across the massive expanse of the Pacific Ocean. From British occupied India, Tibet, Nepal and China in the West to Pearl Harbor and the West Coast of the US and Canada. WWII Pacific Theatre features the largest map yet in the series at 198x82 tiles in size.
Command the forces of 5 major and 23 different minor nations. 20 different unique unit types are portrayed and modeled with up to 30 different characteristics and stats.
To add historical flavor and replayability, over 150 different in-game events are now depicted including the Doolittle Raid, Mirill's Marauders, Japanese Midget Sub attacks on Pearl Harbor and even the decision to drop atomic bombs on Hiroshima and Nagasaki. 8 mini-campaigns feature various operations including Midway, Macarthur's struggle in the Philippines, the defense of India by General Slim's courageous and outnumbered 14th Army, the Allied liberation of Burma, the island assaults of Okinawa, Iwo Jima and Pelelui plus the entire New Guinea campaign.
Also included is a full "Mega-Campaign" which covers the entire conflict beginning with the December 7th 1941 surprise attack on the US fleet at Pearl Harbor and playable until the middle of 1947, in case you need that long to gain ultimate victory!

Patton Drives East
Patton Drives East allows players to explore the historically possible what ifs of WWII such as:
- What if the Western Allies and the Soviet Union went to war after defeating the Axis?
- Could America liberate a Europe subjugated by the Axis?
- What if the Western Allies had accepted a surrender from Germany and together they would fight against the USSR?

Among the features, it is worth mentioning:
- New and bigger game map, now 172x46 tiles in size
- Much larger North American map area, stretching from Florida and the Gulf of Mexico all the way to the Rocky Mountains
- Enhanced and unpredictable AI via new decision events and global variables
- New unit graphics to reflect updated equipment and technologies that would become available post WWII
- Exciting new post-WWII Allies vs. USSR campaigns

  • This is the enhanced Gold edition of the original Strategic Command: Blitzkrieg
  • The Gold Edition allow players to play:
  • Blitzkrieg + Weapons and Warfare
  • Pacific Theatre
  • Patton Drives East
  • Powerful Editor

Simply One Of The Best

Great game! I highly recommend it. The entire series is worth checking out to be honest. It's not for everyone, but if you take your time and give it your full attention. The game is so rewarding and up there with the other great games in its class.

Buggy mess

I understand that strategy games ought to be difficult and you can expect spending tens of hours figuring out how to win. The problem with this game is that is linear, has too much bugs and it lacks of logic. It is well known that Germans were at one point only step from defeating the USSR. When I played as Axis and conquered Moscow with few other cities, the country was still operated like nothing happened. Lot of new strong units and massive ammount of production points. I was forced to alliance with Japan but never had occasion to make any decisions in regard to that. USSR on the other hand had event of moving units from SIberia after they struck the deal with them. I didn't conquer Paris but there was event of "liberating" that city. Why my upgraded units struggling so much defeating basic corps ? Why conquering cities not affecting yours and opponents production ? Unfortunately, instead of being proper wargames, titles from this series are just ugly, with outdated UI, full of bugs frustrating softwares.
