Company of Heroes 2!!!

[Damocles8]

Well I was looking at the Coming Soon portion of steam, and right at the end, slated for 2013, is Company of Heroes 2!

Always excited for a new title in this series, but I'm that excitement is slightly lessened that it's going to be involved on the Eastern Front.

Fantastic Lets hope they have not changed the winning formula of the first.

"It is 1941 and the beginning of what will become the most brutal conflict of World War II, as Germany launches a full-scale invasion of the frozen tundra of the Soviet Union which would result in over 14 million military casualties. Take command of the iconic Soviet Red Army in brutal frontline warfare to free Mother Russia from the invading Nazis. Your strategic skills and tactical expertise hold the power to tip the very balance of this conflict in the sequel to the critically acclaimed and multi award-winning Company of Heroes. Engage in visceral tactical combat that will define you as a military leader and challenge you to wield the might of the Soviet Empire as you smash your way to Berlin." http://www.companyofheroes.com/news/...es-2-announced


So bigger battles maybe?

[sigur]

At least it seems like the theater and acting parties have changed. Two campaigns, one german, one soviet maybe?

Doubt it, they wouldn't want to put the Soviets in a bad light at all....

If you want to avoid bad light, especially the eastern front is a bit of a bad choice for your wargame though.

I'm just not a big fan of the Soviet Union, especially in WW2, although it'd be interesting if the started the game off with the invasion of Poland (from both sides....)
