If you enjoy tactical simshooters and SWAT 4 this is absolutely an essential upgrade. Everything that made the base game great, plus a lof of QoL improvements and additions. Outstanding.
Sometimes fun gameplay and interesting story, but hampered by absolutely inept control and consistantly un-fun missions that consist of your six-ten units facing endless hordes of Soviets/Americans who always outnumber you by a factor of 300000. You are constantly tasked with securing multiple objectives at once, but the way the game plays taking your eyes off a unit for longer than one nanosecond basically ensures they will be blown away. It never feels like you are making progress towards an objective because enemy units will spawn infinitely and in great numbers until whatever mission trigger is hit. Tactical gameplay non-existant, but Cold War afficiandos will appreciate the attention to different NATO and Warsaw Pact vehicles, and as I said the scenario is pretty cool.
