Squad 44

Squad 44 is a shooter about World War II battles on European maps. Engineers build shelters and warehouses. Defense and attack take turns. Ammunition is transported by trucks. Armor is divided by type and vulnerability. Orders go from the commander to the squads. The mine is neutralized by the hands of the sapper. Signalmen pull the cable between headquarters. Exploding shells make you fall into the mud. The trenches are connected by communication passages. The parties include British paratroopers, US Marines, the French and the Germans. The radio operator connects the commander with the troops. Communication occurs via a positional voice channel. The squad follows the commander's orders. Sappers are mining approaches to villages. Machine gunners hold the streets. The delivery of supplies is building a new collection point. The buildings are held until the end of the round. Radio interception interferes with stealth. The detachment commander keeps in touch with headquarters. The round is decided at the last turn. Discipline rests with commanders and squads. The tank is driven by three people: a mechanic, a gunner and a commander. Equipment breaks down from hits. Trenches and houses provide shelter from shrapnel. Buildings inside can be strengthened. The units build warehouses and repair equipment. Guns require crews and shells. The guns are placed at direct fire. Trenches are dug with sapper shovels. Machine gunners suppress windows and embrasures. Mortars and artillery operate on target. The maps replicate real villages and bridges. Shouts and whistles keep the connection in battle. The mortars fire on cue. Artillery requires adjustments and time. Defense rests on trenches and houses. Buildings can be reinforced with sandbags. The tank is being repaired in the field. The tank supports the infantry with cannon fire. For those who love structure and connection, this game is suitable.
