Fairly enjoyable, if niche
Had this on Steam, haven't repurchased here. If you like micromanagement, you'll have a good time, probably. I did. The mechanics are a mild step up from "Soldiers: Heroes of WW2" but not quite as refined as "Men of War". (For example, in Men of War, you can drive a tank next to another tank, and freely transfer their inventory back and forth. Here, you still need to get someone out of the vehicles, and only can transfer as much as a person can carry at a time.) Unfortunately, I think it's a bit buggy at times. My biggest beef is with a mission where you infiltrate a base in disguise. If you get "made", you get a voice line that I've heard 1,000 times: "Alarm! Saboteur on the base!" and the mission fails. (The rest of this review is just about this particular mission as an example. Again, the game is probably 3 or 4 stars overall, but depends heavily on how you feel about this kind of micromanagement.) The overall arc of the mission is to plant four explosives at key points, set them off and take over the base, and then defend the base from a counterattack. Anyway, to live up to my usual "no guards to find the bodies" method, I carefully isolated and eliminated every single person on the base except for the barracks, where there's simply too many in close proximity. This makes taking over the base a cakewalk. Unfortunately, somewhere during the counterattack I'd get the "Alarm! Saboteur on the base!" message and fail the mission...despite the fact that anyone who could be saying that is dead. I did beat the mission once playing "as intended", but I was very saddened that I couldn't have it this way, especially since I was able to spend *hours* save-scumming to get everything just-so.
