Africa at War....Try It

[Riley D. Smith]

If any of you are on the fence about installing this mod and giving it a go...wait no more. Everytime I fire this up I am amazed at the quality piece of work it is. If installing mods gives you any issues (such as it does with dullards like me usually), this one is even more your cup of tea with the self-extractracting files and all.

I have yet to play a bad scenario. Don't read me wrong...I've PLAYED badly in many of them...but haven't played a poorly designed one yet.

If you are into fast pace, modern weapons, lethal battlefields, and just loads of fun...this is your game. BTW...you are going to really want to brush up on your armored infantry assault tactics as well as a good "Terrain 101" primer. Poor use of available cover in this game gets you dead very quickly. There are times you will find yourself picking your paths hex by hex, cautiously looking at all visible hexes/lines of sight. You'll also find yourself needing to use smoke generators on your light/med armor in nearly every situation...often for post op fire cover.

Right now...the esteemed Mr. Harden and I are engaged in a "scrap metal producing slug fest" that is nothing short of a lightening round on a game show. It's fire and manuever...or die. Great stuff!

Seriously...give this mod a go...you'll not be sorry. And feel free if you have it installed to fire up a scenario and send it my way. I need to branch out in opponents...the top 8 of the ladder are spending an inordinate amount of time using me as a punching bag. Ha.
