Description

Russian Front is our most ambitious strategy game yet, an operational-level game with a wider scope than any of our previous titles. The battle for the Russian Front was a pivotal moment in World War 2, and this game gives it the scale it deserves.

"The interface is just so clean, intuitive and functional that I was able to get past the learning curve in no time at all, and get right down to the business of developing tactics to beat the game." - Mark D., Grognard.com

"Passed Inspection: Low price, Good AI, good depth of play" - Armchair General (Review score: 91%)

Experience grand strategy across the entire theatre of the Eastern Front; the military conflict that many consider to be the iconic attacker/defender scenario. Command massive armies at your fingertips, in this fully 3D turn-based simulation of one of the largest military campaigns in history, playable as both Germans and Russians.

Start in the early days of Operation Barbarossa and follow the German invasion of Russia through to its ultimate failure. Or start later in the war and jump straight into the Russian counter push to Berlin. A massive 108 turn campaign will take you from the opening stages to a final, overwhelming Russian offensive. Four shorter Operations, spanning 16 turns each, take place from June to December of each year and offer a more condensed experience.

The bitter weather on the Eastern Front was as much a danger as the opposing forces, and the game reflects this with a seasonal cycle that has a profound effect on your tactics as you struggle to hold out through the vicious Winter until reinforcements arrive in Summer. Players must also deal with fog of war effects, and will be able to cut off their opponent's supply lines, while making sure their own stay secure.

Needs more work

This is OK as it stands and I can see that things could be great with this game. However, why do I have to sit through endless amounts of time while the AI does its stuff? Also, and this is unbeleivable, I can see no way of saving games. Surely, surely surely someone must have bothered to do this basic bit of testing on the Mac?

Russian Front

Oh dear - the basic combat mechanisms work reasonably well, but in its current state, the game will not save, and the scrolling control is very awkward. At the moment, on the save screen, all you have is a jumbled mess of wording and it plain does not work.
Furthermore, since when did any Russian winter commence in September? - historically, during Barbarossa, the rains came in October, then the snow from about November. In September most places were still baking hot, so having snowscapes in September is silly and entirely off-putting. It needs sorting out properly, along with the save situation, and ideally, the scrolling.
One other issue is that you cannot control advance after combat - units just lumber in front of other units, spoiling later movements and planned attacks.
If these things are corrected, it will be a fair enough game. But I will not play it again until the issues are addressed.
