It's made by Decision Games. Used to be a board game of WW II eto and N Africa at division level. I never played it then as it must have been a nightmare to set up and play but now that it is on computer version it is very playable. Still a complex game but very challenging and fun to play H2H. I am playing my second campaign against the same opponent and the learning curve is very steep. I never made it past 1941 as Allies in the first one.....getting better tho as the second one is halfway thru 1942 and still alive.....albeit by a thread:-).

Depends if you like a higher level as it is division and brigade level. Player is in charge of every aspect from production of units to assigning naval and air along with ground forces movement. There is no AI. There are numerous start points for campaigns from 1939 thru 1944. I enjoy the 1939 start as you get to control everything from the beginning of the war. Of course that's a double edge sword as I have found just trying to plan the production to be a very challenging phase.Also lots of options to use or not.

Anyway if you like that level of play I recommend the game. Company is always releasing patches and upgrades and they have an extensive forum.
