Great game! Brother was in the 10th Mountain Division and I was in the 101st Airborne Division. Deployed to Afghanistan from 2010-2011. Brings back memories both good and bad.

pretty fun, I get to LARP as the ANSDF which is cool, got the game on sale and i get to raze opium fields and bomb taliban fighters. Peak gameplay although it seems the game is a little dated and has a few bugs. Overall it's a really good game and I would play this game if you like RTS games and hate terrorism. (P.S, the game is incredibly accurate as my clearly UN convoy full of humanitarian aid got blown up by a bunch of taliban fighters en route to a village whom promptly dissapeared.)

It's an amazing game but it's incredibly frustrating . I love it and at the same time I could freak out when IEDs spawn for the umpteenth time in areas that are overwatched by SF or trucks in a guarded convoy get destroyed numerous times in a row.

Definitely a deeper game than it first appears on the surface, the combat and the strategy take a bit of thought and a couple missions challenge you to come up with something different. I did get a bit sick of the repetitive scenarios, and I think they could have added in more variety rather than increase H&M score before X turns time and time again. I feel that the standard price is a little steep though, and I would suggest picking it up on sale.

If GMT would have made video games of its Counter-Isurgeancy (COIN) instead of boardgames, this is what they would look like. - Solid gameplay that will challenge you. - Good scenarios covering the different times in the Afghan COIN war. - Easy to learn but not so easily mastered mechancs. - Four layers of gameplay, two minor (People and the U.S. Government) and two major ones (Insurgeants and COIN forces). - Strong enphasis on logistics. - It is a Counter-Insurgeancy game, not a typical war game. As I said, it is basicaly GMT's boardgames but in a video game. So it is more a cat and mouse game with logistics, booby traps, ambushes, etc rather than a mass units and attack one. - Like others of the series, it shines and is quite the underdog. - Worth every penny. Screw you AAA games! Now the only thing left is to make an insurgeant playthrough for each of those solid games. :)
