im just wondering after playing Men of war a lot are there any other games like it?

cause i really like the realism to it and it being more tactics and keeping you men rather than spamming a lot of units.

[Ozyton]

If you liked Men of War you might like Soldiers: Heroes of World War 2.

It's made by the same people and is essentially Men of War before it became Men of War... and with smaller unit tactics.

I've never played the game myself, but... yeah.

Other than that Men of War is unique. The closest thing that comes to it is nothing.

[Antioch]

I would recommend the close combat series

[ScriptWolf]

yeah i have seen both of them games and have Hero's of world war 2, its ok

and the close combat series seems good as well.

also i have found this: Achtung Panzer: Kharkov 1943 which seems to be a really good game and more in depth than men of war!, but damn is it hard to get hold of , anyone else heard of this game? or played it?

[Ozyton]

I haven't heard of that game.

Another game just came to mind: Theater of War. I don't know anything about it though.

[ScriptWolf]

yeah theater is not that good in my opinion , but the combat mission games are good, im looking forward to combat mission: normandy right now

[Digital Hellhound]

but the combat mission games are good, im looking forward to combat mission: normandy right now

+1

Though IMO the older games are better than Shock Force and it's modules. The scenario editor in SF is kinda frustrating to use as well (choosing units especially).

[ScriptWolf]

im thinking about getting CBM the older ones but not shock force , the only thing which is putting me of a little is the graphics

Men of War: Assault Squad is improved version of Men of War.

[Ozyton]

I kinda figured that wouldn't even need mentioning, considering it -is- Men of War.

[kulik]

Theatre of War series.

And as already mentioned Combat mission: Battlefield Normandy comes out this month!!!!  ...may bee too hardcore even for MOW fan thoug.

[Blackray Jack]

Men of War: Assault Squad is improved version of Men of War.

I second this; it balances out alot of things, makes sweeping improvements across the board especially where infantry AI is concerned. It ramps up AT guns so they're alot more useful, and improves infantry by a large margin for all armies, the only thing I'm slightly concerned with balance-wise are the hero units for each army. Other than that, Assault Squad improves on Men Of War in alot of ways beyond said ways that I mentioned and is yet to leave beta testing. I recommend giving it a go.

For those interested in watching really good, amusing, and informative shoutcasts about MoW, I highly, highly recommend TychoCelchuu's channel on youtube.

About combat mission normandy are we going to be able to buy it over amazon and stuff? Cause I can't find it anywhere and I cant wait till it comes out!! Its looking very good

[Digital Hellhound]

I'm not sure, I think you can buy it through Battlefront's site.

I'm kinda disappointed that you can only get the US (and germans, naturally) at first, and other nations will come through these 'modules'. I hate DLC like this, especially as they included all nations right away with the old games.

[ScriptWolf]

think it will be out over steam? seeing as though the new combat theater game is
