Has anyone played it? I saw it in Game, it looked pretty good, dunno about buying it though.

Here's a trailer

just looks like a crappy hearts of iron

**Lord Zimoa** · March 26, 2009, 04:48 PM

Looks can be deceiving though and some just prefer a solid and bug free strategy challenge over fancy graphics.

Read some of the reviews.

fromwhat i saw it looks like it has a hexagon board.
Hence it will suck.

HOI3 is coming out so this is pointless.

**Ojf** · March 27, 2009, 03:00 PM

HOI3 is months away and it looks horrible

**Scipio Afracanis** · March 27, 2009, 04:26 PM

Looks more complicated than Strategic Command but not as fun as HOI2.

Hex doesn't bother me,but with other already good war sim games hard to come out with good new ones.

If anyone tries it out and its fun give a hollar.
