I overlooked this one cause of the graphics, thought it was combat lite phone game. Dont make the same mistake. Elegant, balanced, and playable, gives a true sense of warfare, especially the importance of logistics. Understands how to represent unit strength in terms of its function, ie no need to list the number of motorcycles and MG42s on a division level unit. Exciting fascinating gameplay is the result. If you're a veteran wargamer, this is your game. If you only have a passing interest, yes this is where to start. Absolutely highly recommended.

In this age of over-hyped releases and broken promises, the Unity of Command series stands out a mile. And United of Command II was a sequel that improved in every way on its already great predecessor. The graphics and interface are simple, but effective. The AI opponent is relentless and realistic. You don't need to learn how to win the game, but rather how to win a battle. To win you must maintain supply lines and outflank your enemy. Gameplay balance seems effortless here. Further, no two campaigns or battles play out the same, giving the game high replay value. This is the WWII strategy game I return to the most. Games like this deserve to be celebrated. Highly recommended!

More complicated than Panzer General, Panzer Corps, Hex of Steel or Order of Battle, Unity of Command reminds me of older strategic/operational hex-based tabletop war games where you had to spend points to activate your units, and you only had sufficient points to activate some of your units. Fun, but frustrating at times, mainly because the rule set is not one I have internalized. If you are bored with the games mentioned above, give this a try.

It's a bit complex, but worth the learning curve. It would be a great system to adapt to Warhammer 40,000, especially if there's an RPG element (army building).

I really enjoyed this game. For me the game just looks good, music and sound effects are great (though more songs would be great, but what is there is quality stuff), I like the era, historic feeling of the game and scenarios, feeling of the game, decision space is interesting (though for me there's a bit more micromanagement involved than I'd like), scenarios are interesting and I just get the right kind of feeling commanding units to victory in the west. There's lot of detail and depth to be enjoyed. A lot of the game hinges on scenario design. I think all scenarios were good, but a few stood out as most interesting and challenging. A couple were really tough. Towards the end of the campaign a lot of scenarios had this emptiness to them. Surely historical, but was hard to for me to play those. Game punishes for mistakes, but in some scenarios you need to push forwards aggressively. I think overall scenarios and the whole campaign with the HQ upgrade system expects you to know what's ahead a bit more than what is realistic to expect from a player of this game. It's really hard to do really well, without knowing the little things that come. That was my experience at least. I do feel that repeat play makes the game easier: I've learned mechanics better, I know better what to expect from the enemy in each scenario, I've understood the map and the objectives and how to reach them better. That's something the real commanders didn't have, there was no restart scenario button. On the other hand they hand tens of people planning each operation, I'm alone playing late in the evening after kids have gone to bed. Or perhaps strategy just isn't where I shine. Is this game for you? There are things to consider: [*]The game is not easy (I played on Normal difficulty and it presented a fair challenge). [*]It's simple to play, but making good decisions requires thinking. [*]You need to have a strategy to be able to do well. Tactical exploitation of local situation isn't enough to be good at this game. This means thinking about how you will execute the scenario to reach objectives. [*]You have to understand the game mechanics and rules to be able to be as effective as you can. Manual is 73 pages, be prepared to read though it at least once. "How to" and "tips and strategies" articles and videos also help you to understand how to play effectively. [*]I've enjoyed this game one scenario at a time, like sipping a good wine. No need to rush through the game content. [*]I think I will enjoy playing the campaign again, just because I think I can do better having learned how to play better plus there are those "what if" scenarios in the campaign when you do better than what really happened. So replayability is there! [*]The scenarios put you on a clock, and thus you need a plan and need to keep executing it. I think I was a bit too cautious and that hurt me, but the game punishes for reckless mistakes, so there's a balance to be struck. [*]Some say the game is a puzzle. Perhaps that's more true on the Classic difficulty (as said, I played on Normal), but to me the game presenting you with a challenge and making you think, and needing to do things in an intelligent manner doesn't make it a puzzle. I'm not sure how many ways there are to win the scenarios, but I'm pretty sure there are plenty of different approaches. However, there's logistics (supply) and the objectives (city and turn limit) which might push you towards one strategy on a high level. Perhaps that, for some, limits their freedom and makes the game feel like a puzzle. That said, I haven't explored the scenarios enough to say how many strategies or approaches there are in each scenario. Point is, scenarios inevitably have approaches that work better, and that doesn't make the game a puzzle to me. Not in a bad way at least. [*]Not sure if I want to try Classic difficulty. Let's see if I become a really good player, maybe then :D I would imagine I'd need to pay attention too much to details (unit composition/upgrades/specialists) than I'd like to, to be able to do well in Classic mode. I would think this is for you if you like to think about strategy and tactics, have patience to play slow, at least tolerate some micromanagement of unit stats with 20-30 units on map in some scenarios, enjoy WWII turn-based strategy and tactics and generally like boardgames. Only 7,4 % of players have finished the base game campaign. To me that signals that, in the end, the game wasn't what a lot of people expected. That's ok. To me it was what I expected: a digital-only boardgame of an operational level WWII campaign through Western Europe. With many other campaigns as DLC available. A quality product, recommended!
