This game seems alright but there is like no media coverage on it at all
If it's anything like the second game, then I won't be getting this one.
While the idea sounds cool, "let's make realistic RTS combat simulation," the actual game falls short of being interesting. Something about guys shooting each other from 500m is not particularly fun to watch (which is most of what you will be doing anyway).
I'll withhold final judgment until I play a demo.

Aye. The previous ToW games felt clunky and slow, they were fun to watch but annoying to actually play.

Not to mention the HORRIBLE perfomance. I have a good PC and could barely play it on medium without fps drops.
I can say that this one is vastly improved from the old.
Actually feels more like a game and not just a cool screenshot generator.

How do the campaigns play? I assume you take units from fight to fight. Is there any sort of unit veterancy gain for surviving numerous deployments?
There was in the second one, I'd think they'd keep it in.

From what I've read the manual, yes.
After my initial 10 minutes with this game, I don't know what to say. It's like if 1C Company wanted to make a game with the intricacies of Men of War combined with the scale of Combat Mission.
Honestly it feels like playing MoW with the Dynamic Campaign Generator but more awesome.
I'm going to install the game on my desktop next week and see if the better performance will change my mind. The game could've used a better tutorial though.
