Strategic Command: European Theater

great TBS, been playing it for some 18 years now, occasionally. sometimes when I get a new idea of a strategy, I play SC for a week or so to test it really well xd high score I've got is 429 as Axis on max difficulty. by now there's quite a few more modern games, like Civilization 5 or Hearts of Iron IV, but this is a memorable one and a great first step into turn-based strategy.

This was my first computer strategy game. Way back then I had a 386 and then a 486 that wouldn't play the game. I actually brought my computer in to a professional to make sure I could play this game. I loved it, no mess, no dice, no table space. Now of course there is a better version of this game, called Hearts of Iron. I do recommend this game however for its simplicity compared to others. If you are new to world conquest type games this would be a great introduction game.

Like the simple, 2D style of the game, however, combat system is very strange, 4 battleships cannot defeat single plane, enemy units behind my lines can reinforce but my units behind enemy lines cannot, my tank takes massive damage from enemy tank, but for some reason their corps is strong enough to hold against a tank? As said, very strange and I feel is biased against axis, but still fun.

It's an old game I've played before especially the version adapted to the DS Lite and released in the UK. Quick and dirty wargame simulation of the Second World War in Europe that has a decent AI. Easy way to kill a lot of free time.

very authetic reminds of the original boards games of 1970s
