Faces of War is the direct sequel to Soldiers: Heroes of World War II and the missing link before the Men of War series. Built on an improved version of Best Way's GEM engine, it expands on its predecessor with larger-scale battles, smarter AI, improved physics, and even more tactical freedom. The core gameplay remains the same: you command a small group of soldiers in real time, where every unit, vehicle, and piece of equipment matters. Success rarely comes from brute force alone—you'll constantly have to improvise, manage your resources, exploit the environment, and adapt to changing situations. Compared to Soldiers, battles are much larger, with friendly AI forces fighting alongside you, making the battlefield feel far more alive without sacrificing the series' trademark attention to detail. The game features three campaigns from the Allied, German, and Soviet perspectives, covering some of the most iconic battles of the final years of World War II. The atmospheric orchestral soundtrack deserves a special mention, as it perfectly captures both the intensity of combat and the somber tone of the conflict, making every mission even more memorable. Despite its age, very few tactical RTS games offer this level of freedom and interaction with the battlefield. Pro tip: Hold CTRL to enter Direct Control mode. This allows you to take full control of any selected soldier or vehicle, letting you move, aim, fire, and reload manually. Learning when to switch between RTS commands and Direct Control is the key to mastering the game—don't hesitate to abuse it.

This was my introduction to the Men of War Franchise when I was a younger; I had the CD case back when they sold it physically. With other options on the table, this game is now outdated graphically and mechanically, but it maintains the same soul that the other games still have. It's usually very cheap and for the campaigns of all the countries I'd say it's worth it.

Faces of War is the prequel game to what would develop into the Men of War series. Like the successors to follow, the game offers RTS squad based action with a hint of Band of Brothers and Commandos. One of the best things about this older title is that it provides a rather helpful tutorial that covers all aspects of the game (Men of War). Most of the mechanics are the same in future (and arguably better) releases, so it could be worthwhile for some to play Faces of War, just for this reason alone. Recommended!
