I bought "Commander: Europe at War" a couple of months ago and hope you like it better than I did, Falco - it's already on my shelf collecting dust. It does look pretty - to me it is kind of a hybrid of the old "Panzer General" and "Hearts of Iron 2" except it failed to hold my attention longer than either of those.
Did u play it PBEM or against the AI mate? I found playing it against the AI to be about as exciting as watching grass grow. However playing against another person is a whole different ballgame, (mind you I loath playing against the AI with any PC game).
Dont get me wrong, there are still several issues I have with CEAW. Namely no replay option - a real bummer IMHO, just arrows to show where your opponent has moved. Also no toggle button to display destroyed units. And lastly I feel too many features are 'automated' insteat of the player having control over them ie. transAtlantic convoys, fighter interception etc.
Having said all this however I am having a lot of fun with CEAW at the moment. Will it be as long lasting as say CM?....I doubt it but if I get a couple of years enjoyment it will have been worth it.....lol.
