Hearts Iron 2 and Gary Grigsby's world at war

@Noll:

Do you know if there’s any good ww2 tactical game with turns instead of real time?

I tried heart of iron 3 (and that game doesn’t have turns either) but I find it too deep in rules to like it. (I feel like I need to read a 200pages manual to be able to play it)

I wouldn’t give up on the entire series, try Hearts of Iron 2 or Hearts of Iron Darkest Hour edition, both are much simpler and intuitive. You can download it from STEAM but make sure you get the game that says Darkest Hour: A Hearts of Iron game and not Darkest Hour Europe 44-45, thats and FPS not an RTS.

Darkest Hour is alot of fun with a much better map then the other HOI games. Also its the only one with a 1914 start date, which is alot of fun.

Actualy the average base size is 25mm. 40mm is used for tyranid warriors and 60mm for carnifexs. Thank you Google  :-D

Well look where it got  :wink:

Has anyone played this game?

LOL That was good.

I just think the best combo is this:

movement: small stick style joystick ( because you use a few fingers rather than perhaps 4 fingers for W-A-S-Z)

Looking around and aiming the gun: mouse

The mouse (or your moving your hand rather is much faster than using fingers to manipulate the other joystick for xy axis movements because it only requires you to move the hand while you can fire with the same hand. The joystick requires you to move fingers and take your hand partially off to use those 4 buttons.

I love the date on this posting.
