DEAD GAME ?

This exciting new release is a faithful adaptation of the renowned Conflict of Heroes board game that won the Origins Historical Game of the Year, Charles Roberts Wargame of the Year and the James F. Dunnigan Design Elegance Award, as well as many others!

Designed and developed in cooperation with Uwe Eickert, the original designer of Conflict of Heroes, and Western Civlization Software, the award-winning computer wargame studio, no effort has been spared to bring the outstanding Conflict of Heroes gameplay to the computer. Conflict of Heroes includes an AI opponent as well as full multiplayer support with an integrated forum and game lobby. To remain true to the core gameplay of the board game, the PC version is designed to be fun, fast and easy to play, though hard to master. The game design is also historically accurate and teaches and rewards platoon and company-level combined arms tactics without overwhelming the player with rules.

Nice game, I really enjoyed (past tense) the game play. But the East Front doesn't really interest me. I bought into the series hoping for a WWII Pacific sequel (or maybe West Front). Sadly, that seems most unlikely to happen.

That would be nice, but I don't see it happening!

Think I'll just buy the board game. [:)]

I never did like the I go 1 unit you go 1 unit playstyle. It's not to say it's a bad game but, it reminds me of too many others just like it like "Eagle Strike" from HPS which I already have.

I tried it a few games just never could get into it at all. Needs a "skirmish" mode where it has buy point system and a play online feature Icp/Tp or whatever that is for online.

Appears that you've answered your own question... Furthermore the last post in the discussion forums on STEAM was in Aug of 2017. One wonders if all the accolades this game got from the cardboard gamers is indicative of a piss poor port or that card board gamers are just so different from computer gamers that for us what they like is essentially irrelevant.

I too would like to know the answer to that though right now it's selling for $29.99.

I like the game and still play it.

I even bought the board games as a result of playing the pc version.
