Barely really started playing, but I'll still give a provisional 4 stars cause I understand the hard work that goes into making these games and I can see there is definitely some polish to this, but I will say this one gripe that I have. The unit list is far too editable and with basically no way to revert changes back to their default. The only way atm to do that is to reinstall the game. I think this could be fixed with a simple reset to default button. Other than that great game indeed

Hello hello, my bad for the unit list it shouldn't even be available to edit anything. I disabled all edit features on mobile because I can't handle it. It's only available on PC, consider the edit features on mobile as simply inexistant. Player asked me to keep the unit's list to use as a unit encyclopedia, that's why it's still here ;)

This is hands-down the best WW2 game available on mobile. No ads or in-game micro transactions, lots of content, and the developer is actively supporting the game. The game plays similarly to the classic Panzer General series, but beneath the surface there's a very well designed system of logistics, morale, and manpower. My only complaint is that the campaign gets too easy for the player once you've accumulated a large core force (15+ units), so I would recommend starting in 1942 or later.

It is the great old classic turn-based WWII strategy I have been looking for for years. This game blends the great mechanics from Panzer General and Order of Battle. Another plus side is the fact that I can play this game on both PC and mobile. I am also a fan of Advanced Daisenryaku. It has a lot of great realistic mechanics that are not seen in other games. I would be glad to see these mechanics to be reimplemented in a modern game like this one.
