#SUDDEN STRIKE FOREVER SOFTWARE#

This picture shows 4 of my T-34 tanks ( the ones in green) taking on a small company of German Tiger Tanks (grey) with a Soviet officer at the helm of the T-34s which enable a good line of sight and helps to spot enemies at a fair distance. In Sudden Strike, who shoots first wins, and the best line of sight does it best. Or you may place tanks side by side with your officer but that's not such a good idea, since tanks rarely fire quickly enough to repel the enemy's streams of soldiers. To illustrate:- Your officers who have the best line of sight than others have to take the frontline, but is backed up by your artillery (which have the suckiest line of sight) to maximise the artillery usefulness. Now, about the careful positioning pa rt your anti-tank cannons, tanks and also infantry must be placed at the right position of the map terrain to claim its maximum potential. It does get frustrating when your army starts to thin out from continuous attacks by the enemy AI who relied on numerical superiority or that a sizeable part of your tank companies get destroyed in a sortie or a scouting mission. So, you'll have, for example, a set number of light tanks and ce rtain valuable infantry to carry out your mission. Real time tactics (RTT) as opposed to the conventional RTS (Real Time Strategy) would have the player command troops that may not be replaced if lost (RTS games allow the player to churn out a sizeable army designed to completely annihilate their foes) and rely on a default number of troops in any particular scenario. For me, it was something you'll need to get used to but usually, the action is pretty immersive and such that the choice to send large formation of troops to the far side of the battle map is pretty unnecessary, if not an act of folly as they have a high possibilty of running head-on into enemy guns. If you thought that baby-sitting your troops to make sure that they fall in line and perform their combat well was bad enough the measured pace of the game to model the real-life battles can also be a put- off especially when the casual gamer has already been spoilt silly by alternatives like 'Warcraft III' and 'C&C Generals'. Not that it's such a big problem in the first place the wrong type of infantry can sometimes prove to be the man at the right place in the wrong time. And trained eye means, after suffering at least 120 hours of fiddling with the game mechanics, assuming your interest can last that long in the game.

The infantry units are elusive but to the most trained eye. Small units at higher resolutions 800ењ†40 and more. to conquer a certain (ghost) town in the east, or to take a munitions depot.Дў.

When used in this context, expect it to include the fact that the same mission objectives crop up everytime in slightly varying forms, e.g. Most importantly, the milieu of the battles are in the backdrop of World War II, the greatest war ever fought by the psychopath race called humans. Using dated but beautiful graphics, a primitive AI which throws score after score of units at you and hoping that their superior numbers count. Release date: January 2001 / November 2001
