    Men of War

    Anyone play this massively under appreciated gem?

    It's really the only game in the last few years that I absolutely love. You'll need a bit of patience and if you are looking for an experience similar to Company of Heroes this is not for you.

    More realistic than CoH due to that fact the machine guns actually kill people rather than make them roll around in the dirt until you retreat them. Tanks don't have health bars, so turrets, tracks, main gun, engine and hull are all targets and will disable the tank in various ways.

    Highly recommend this game if you are looking for an in depth RTS which relies heavily on how you use your units rather than what units you pick. It doesn't have the mirror shine of CoH but it's still very enjoyable and It'd be great to own some people online

    Yeah I spied that a few days ago, but unfortunately it is a single player only game, which is a bit of a shame considering all the new units in it

    I grabbed this a few weeks ago in a steam offer, sounds like I should give it a proper try soon.
