Battle of Britain II: Wings of Victory
Relive what Churchill called "their finest hour", join the fight in Battle of Britain II “Wings of Victory”!…
Battle of Britain II “Wings of Victory” re-creates the famous and desperate air battles over southern England in 1940 at both the strategic level of the Air Commander and that of the individual plane and pilot. Both veteran and casual gamers alike will find something to enjoy in this combination of strategic planning and exciting dogfighting. Your battles take place over a vast and dynamic world below. Relive what Churchill called "their finest hour" and join the most decisive air campaign in history!
Battle of Britain II “Wings of Victory” allows you to either act as the supreme air commander or let your sub-commanders manage the air war themselves. As the air commander, you have the ability to view the campaign all the way from the strategic view down to a single aircraft or building in a dynamic war environment where thousands battle for victory. Each plane, factory, airfield, and radar station has a specific purpose and effect on the progress of the war and when these are targeted by each side, the course of the war can change. As the campaign for air superiority plays out, you can watch flights from both sides carrying out their assigned daily missions.
If you prefer the tactical to the strategic, you can leave the map view of the air commander and jump into the cockpit of the British Hurricane, Spitfire, German Messerschmitt, Stuka dive bomber, or man the gun stations of the Dornier Do17, Heinkel He111, and Ju-88 level bombers. As a pilot, your focus is limited to your mission - destroy the enemy and get you and your mates home alive. Test your skills in this fierce battle - will you become an ace or just a statistic? Strap yourself in for the fight of your life!
Battlefront
Your troops await your orders…
Battlefront features the power of battalion-level combat in some of this period’s most bloody and intense conflicts: Saipan, Market Garden, Novorossisk, and Gazala. Players will have realistic control over their soldiers, with a tactical scale just large enough to make a telling difference in the strategic picture.
Immerse yourself in Battlefront for the PC. While the Battlefront system shares a design philosophy with SSG’s award-winning Decisive Battles series, it is actually an entirely new system specifically designed for battalion-level combat. This level of play gives the player a chance to experience the true issues of command, control, sighting, and supply at a level that emphasizes plenty of tough decisions to make as the great generals of that era had to deal with. The combat system provides new and varied ways to damage your opponent, with provisions for direct and indirect fire, air strikes, and special, historically accurate combat modes (such as Japanese Banzai attacks). Deploy your troops and take command of the Battlefront!
Armchair General Magazine: "...the real point to the game is good old-fashioned war game goodness, and this is where the game stands out. With Battlefront, SSG has given us a game that will appeal to a broad war gaming audience and stay on many hard-drives, for many years to come."
Gamershall (auf Deutsch): (translated) "SSG has for years consistently brought good games to the market. They succeed yet again."
Battles In Italy
Up the Bloody Boot...
Battles in Italy is the latest title in the award-wining Decisive Battles in WWII series from Strategic Studies Group. It takes you to three of the toughest fought battles in the Mediterranean -- the invasion of Sicily, codenamed Operation Husky, the landings at Salerno, codenamed Operation Avalanche and the landings at Anzio, codenamed Operation Shingle.
While the invasion of Sicily went more or less to plan, the result in the two subsequent amphibious operations was less certain, with the safety of the beachheads at both Salerno and Anzio in considerable doubt for some time. Neither side has sufficient resources to do the job properly, and improvisation and desperation are the order of the day, and as a result all three battles are tense and exciting affairs.
All three campaigns incorporate many new improvements and enhancements to the Decisive Battles series. Some of these updates include rules for surrender, political units, cooperation between countries, and improved amphibious invasions!
Game-Boyz: Player Choice “Overall, I would say this game is one of the finest WW2 turn based strategy games on the market today.”
Out of Eight 7/8 (88%) “The pinnacle of hex-based wargames.”
Battles In Normandy
Final Victory or Defeat Had One Name - D-DAY!
"Battles in Normandy" brings to you the award-winning Decisive Battles of World War II system and some seriously intense gameplay. Choose to take the Allied side and you're faced with the overpowering burden of locking into mortal combat with some of the German Army's most vicious and experienced Eastern Front veterans; victory and liberation for France are by no means a foregone conclusion. Or, select the Germans and face an all-consuming Allied army that has a near-endless pool of reinforcements and supply to draw from, intent on your complete destruction.
Either way, two monster campaign scenarios (D-Day to Cobra and Cobra to Failaise) and eight smaller scenarios will cover every important aspect of this campaign, so critical to the redemption of millions under Nazi rule. The Decisive Battles game engine injects a host of special new rules for amphibious and airborne operations, plus a huge number of other enhancements, to dramatically enhance the gameplay experience.
