Nov. 2025

For many years I wanted a military game that gave me the XCOM feeling and this game does exactly that. While not historically accurate, the game is turn based and plays relatively fast turn by turn with easy order giving via mouse. This is not as in depth unit wise or equipment wise, but for what it does, in my mind, giving a tactical XCOM vibe of gameplay, that can be played quickly and giving you some tactical decision when attacking and how it does this well and is fun to play. Just do not expect a hardcore, historically accurate game simulating specific battles as the battles presented are only loosely related to the name of the battle provided. Again I find it very fun and easy to pickup and play with quick turns when I need a game to play for fun. It does have partial controller support, and I may give that a try and will update this post if I find it easy and intuitive to use a controller, but mouse is easy to use as well.

A great turn-based strategy game with excellent graphics and unit management aspects. I hadn't payed attention when I bought this and expected it to be a CoH-like RTS, but was pleasantly surprised how fun it was despite it being a turn-based strategy game, which I dont normally play a lot of. With 6 campaigns to choose from, it's definitely worth a look if you can get all the DLC on sale. Would love to see a Pacific theater campaign or two.

A.I just sits their. They seem to know where all of your units are regardless of where you are on the map. They specifically target your hard hitting units. You can move But the A.I does Not near any objectives. Meaning you gotta go find them. But when you do your already dead. They seem To never miss an tank about Id say maybe 70% of all fire. Meanwhile they rarely miss your troops an needless to say its virtually impossible too beat the game. Unfortunate. You have no reinforcements meanwhile the A.I seems too have an endless supply. This is a fun P.V.P game. As for the campaign. Don't waste your time. Its not fun its just annoying. If this game is any more than $25 don't buy it! As much as i don't want to recommend it it is alright.

Love the move and kill cams in this game along with the intense cover system and moral. Maps really have character feeling very different depending on the setting where city fighting for tanks can be pretty treacherous compared to fighting in the fields. Voice acting is also great for its natural feel which goes great with the epic heroic feel of the music giving a common men's struggle to everything. Its great to be able to call in reinforcements as well things like air, artillery and ship bombardments. Oh yea and can't forget the moral boost with the rally call. The new ARDENNES DLC is fun from the first scenario i played feeling very balanced. Definitely made use of a ton of smoke cover due to all the enemy units waiting to ambush incoming friendlies. HEADQUARTERS: WORLD WAR II, Buy it! Play it! Feel the earth shaking thrill of combat and hear the thunderous roar of battle as bullets fly and armored steel crushes all with treads and cannons blasting magnificence! Oh and check out Zilla Blitz on Youtube who just covered the game and many other incredible tabletop and digital war games.

This game is definitely a dream come true for me. I'm a big fan of games like John Tiller games and the Strategic Mind series. So when I saw the Strategic Mind guys were making a game that is more tactical I was excited. Most turn based games like this have bare minimum graphics. This is serviceable. Not AAA but not 90s graphics either. AI is competent. They will go after your strongest Assets. I mostly been playing the Campaign and its tough but not unfair. This game is nothing like Xcom. Its not an Xcom game. Its like Battle Academy with upgraded graphics. They improved on voice acting from the bad voice acting in the Strategic Mind Series. So I have great hopes on the project for the future. Also they are releasing plenty of DLC. Lot of negative reviews seem to be from people having issues with multiplayer. I don't play multiplayer so cant comment on that but this company usually responsive and give constant updates. So a few gamers are mad its not updated when they want it to, even though the developers are making this game in a warzone and their crying in the comfort of their safe homes. So please take that into consideration when looking at negative versus postive reviews on this game.
