Haven't really heard of this series, anything like CoH?
No not at all. This is turn-based.
Ah alright, the screenshots had me really interested but I don't care for turn based stuff.

Oh really? Most of battlefront's games are turn-based. I assumed this one was as well. Yeah, I might actually be mistaken.
Theatre of War is NOT turn based. It is a very, very realistic strategy game.
Ok. Thanks for clearing that up.
I [I]don't[/I] recommend getting this. It's so boring. I'm not just saying that because it's a simulator - it [I]is[/I] just really boring. It looks good: [media] [url]http://screenshot.xfire.com/s/105308035-4.jpg[/url] [url]http://screenshot.xfire.com/s/105308042-4.jpg[/url] [url]http://screenshot.xfire.com/s/105308044-4.jpg[/url] [url]http://screenshot.xfire.com/s/105308054-4.jpg[/url] [url]http://screenshot.xfire.com/s/105308071-4.jpg[/url] [url]http://screenshot.xfire.com/s/105375639-4.jpg[/url] [url]http://screenshot.xfire.com/s/105375652-4.jpg[/url] [url]http://screenshot.xfire.com/s/105375659-4.jpg[/url] [url]http://screenshot.xfire.com/s/105376926-4.jpg[/url] [url]http://screenshot.xfire.com/s/105376950-4.jpg[/url] [url]http://screenshot.xfire.com/s/105376967-4.jpg[/url] [/media] (Those were taken in the Kursk version) But the only good thing about it is taking screenshots. Unless they've changed it in the other versions, you can't even select certain parts of tanks to attack. All you can do is tell them to attack and hope they hit something important. Infantry is almost useless except for capturing points. The shell ballistics system is cool and all, but the coolness wears off and it becomes boring. The only thing I can compare this too is Actung Panzer. Really, get Men of War or something.
