About Company of Heroes 2

Powered by the Essence Engine 3.0, the Company of Heroes 2 series feature some unique mechanics rewarding thoughtful players. From the TrueSight™ system that emulates the units’ line of sight to the cover-system that encourages clever unit placement – not to mention the combined arms approach and the hard and soft counters gameplay that will make you think twice before trying to destroy a tank with a simple squad of riflemen – each game presents players with an uninterrupted stream of meaningful tactical choices that can turn the tide of war.

Only really got into it recently

Only really got into it recently. It's a really fun game, brought down by being one of the most shameless nickel&dime simulators I've ever played. -Open the campaign mode: there are two campaigns, but you have to buy the second one, -if you buy the second campaign and then go to skirmish, you find out the units from it are sold for skirmish separately, -if you buy all the skirmish units too, and then go to the Theather Of War mode, you find out all 4 campaigns there are available, even letting you watch a cinematic... and then you find out all missions inside are locked because yes, you have to buy them. Personally, if someone is dangling a carrot in front of me like that it makes me feel that the people who made the game think I am a donkey and I don't like that.

A quiet favourite

Really good RTS game, the campaign is excellent set during WW2 on the eastern front, trying to overcome the power of the nazi war machine and struggle with the harsh winters of Russia. With the added bonus of extra single player missions for dlc. Recommend to anyone that enjoys world war games or RTS games in general, hundreds of achievements and hours of fun, death and devastation. The multiplayer section of the game is addictive, allowing you to pit your wits against other players or CPU in 1v1 or 4v4 battles win or lose you will earn in game currency to purchase better doctrines, DLC, skins etc, a really great game to have and play. That been said there are a few flaws with the game, a couple of the achievements are no longer able to be unlocked since the game has change so much since it's release (and it doesn't look like they will fix this any time soon) and compared to the original CoH this fails to meet expectations. However the game is still excellent and well worth your money and your time.
