Men of War

Men of War is a strategy about the Second World War, where in addition to commanding troops, you can take control of an individual fighter. Tactics are based on direct control of a small group. Each soldier has an inventory, so weapons and ammunition have to be obtained in battle. The equipment has vulnerabilities, and the crews behave according to their own rules. In addition to campaigns, there are missions on different fronts and battles against the computer or other players. Calculation of ballistics and visibility does its job: position and cover are often more important than the number of fighters. The decoration looked neat for its time, and the detail of the damage was impressive. The fighters obey orders, but some of the equipment requires manual control, and then the outcome depends on the player. Cover and visibility are more important than numbers, so attacking head-on rarely pays off. Captured weapons and ammunition go to the squad, which helps in long missions. The maps are designed differently, so tactics are tailored to the situation. Each fighter can be given a weapon from a captured one, so the composition of the weapons changes as the mission progresses. Engineers lay mines and build shelters, which helps in defense. Some tasks require the use of technology, and then the outcome depends on the crew. Difficulty settings affect enemy accuracy. In addition to commanding troops, it is possible to take one soldier and act personally. Inventory is limited, so what you pick up in battle replenishes your supply. Maps are based on real places. Difficulty is adjustable. The project is suitable for anyone who loves tactics with personal participation.
