I prefer action games, yet I still very much enjoyed this one. Now if you'll excuse me, I'm off to invade Edinburgh and crush those Allies once and for all!

The scenarios put you right into the action and give you something to sink your teeth into. I thought the action was great, and it didn't overwhelm me. All in all, it made for a lively evening of entertainment.
