Aggression: Europe Under Fire

WINDOWS 10 USERS: The game WILL run. You just have to let the whole intro video play through each time you launch the game. After the intro video finishes, you'll be able to play. ==================================================================== MY ORIGINAL REVIEW: I'm not a fan of RTS strategy games, but the game was on sale for 99 cents and has over 200 actual historical figures included, so how could I pass this up? Even if I never learn to play the game well, the sheer over-the-top chuckle value of having Rasputin sneak into Berlin and steal chemical weapon technology from Germany on Tsar Nicholas' behalf has already made this game worth every single one of the ninety-nine pennies I paid for it.

Das ist gut. The Peaceful Roman Catholic Territory of 20th century Europa was thrown into disorder, mayhem, chaos and Anarchy when their elected Government, The Imperial Royalty, was Assassinated by a Yugoslavian Revolutionary; the assassination started ww1 and ww2 and the financial stability collapse of monetary currency along with the fall of the heavens. the US Government is a smol Terrorist Faction and is not important compared to the Reds that control the East... Fascism is taking root above Royalty and anything else, So it is left to the Fates to decide the Future of the Chosen People and God's Kingdom. Will they all become Capitalists or Fascists, or will the Royalists Rise Again... you decide here in the war to end all wars spanning ww1 and world war 2. u will need to hire ur Generals, and raise armies but first u must upgrade ur technology and factories in each territory. u r the decider u decide. send ur men forward to die or send an armoured coloumn to pave the way to victory over europa fore whichever faction it doesnt matter their all unique. u can has bombers and armoured cars, tenks artillery horses and balloons and men and u will need all sorts of units to stop rebellions which ruin the game and conquer each point and level on the map. its a nice strategy map but its live real time paced not turn based so watch out the computer might overwhelm u. the computer can be set to different difficulties but usually they will attack u, but r easy to beat, the harder it is the moar technology they will develop and the moar armies u will encounter... over all its kinda a good fun game, some suprises but mostly its slow house to house fighting with mass enemy charges https://youtu.be/WxT6S9mV6JE

Ох как бы я хотел какую-нибудь 2 часть этого шедевра! Переодически скачиваю и прохожу, тут есть и глобальная карта, и экономика, политика, даже бои можно вести в режиме стратегии! Бои, конечно, немного баганые, но мой вам совет - не плодите пехоту, стройте танки) И еще не тратьтесь на изучение технологий, а лучше крадите их с помощью шпиона у других стран

Очень сырая, глупый ИИ, и в целом под концепцию первой мировой игра не подходит.

Aggression is a Total War-like game covering the time of WW1 und WW2. The graphic is still totally okay (in 2007 it was GREAT!), and especially the tactical maps are really nice done and extremly detailed. Most terrain like trees and buldings can be destroyed with artillery, which is rather cool. There are trenches and bunkers available, which you can build in the strategic map and then use in the battles. The strategic part of the game is alright. Detailed, but not fleshed out - you have to control propaganda, economy, unrest, science and build up your cities. You also can recruit ministers (historical ppl) which has e simple RP-like skill system. They lvl up and get some usefull (and useless) skills. You also need them as army generals to move your troops around. Fun thing: the leaders are freely recruitable for "science" ressource - so if you like to play with Russia but with Dougles Haig as general? This is your game! The bad part: Events. You get random and/or historical events which are mostly like "do this and that, if you do, get that, if not, this". Most of them are hard to impossible to complete, annoying and add nothing to the game. The rewards are mostly laughable, but the panalty very painful. The tactical battles are... yeah. They look nice, feature a great variant of units and special abilities like artillery/air strike etc., but they are nearly unplayable. The enemy AI is HORRIBLE (if you shoot at units with your artillery, they mostly dont even react, because your Artillery is out of their range) and the pathfinding is the worst I've ever saw in over 20 years of gameing. Since it's effective impossible to move your units on a specific spot or give them the order to attack something specific, you just can throw masses on the enemy and hope that the horrible pathfinding/reaction AI will win the battle in your favour. Or use heavy artillery to annihilate every spot on the map which is not under your control. Maybe realistic WW1 warfare, but so totally unfun it's just sad. So, this game is... not bad in general... It's a great concept and have some very nice mechanics... but... still... more or less unplayable?

Muy bueno totalmente recomendable si te gusta la estrategia en tiempo real, no esperen que sea perfecto, es viejo, pero es muy bueno!

Кто бы что не говорил и не критиковал, агрессия самодостаточная и интересная стратегия, может довольно простая, но захватывающая, для стратегов самое то

Nope! Tried to get into this a few times. Failed each time. It's UI is just too finicky, especially in the battle screens. Your units are impossible to control, and even with a 5:1 advantage over the enemy your "headless chicken" uncontrollable troops will mean that even the enemy "Farmer Barleymow" armed with just a shovel will thrash you everytime. The AI also cheats profanely in the strategic mode half of the game. Things happen too slowly, industry and research points generate very slowly. Buildings and tech cost too much. So you will still be at IRL 1914 tech levels even by the 1930s. Units are cheap though, but the build unit UI is so awkward that you'll only build a few. The AI factions don't have this trouble....... so you'll be outnumbered 20 : 1 very soon. The "hero characters" system is over complicated than it needed to be, and adds little to the game. And it is sooooooooo biased towards Russia. It has twice the number of "provinces" as the others, meaning they are twice as powerful. The United Kingdom is patheticly weak in this game. Germany ain't too strong, but France is quite beefy. There are only a dozen or so states in it anyway, of those you can only play the aforementioned four. Italy, Spain, "Scandinavia" (with Iceland lying hidden and unusable in the far corner!) Turkey are also in it, but are not playable even though some of them are more powerful than the UK! Other really minor nations like "The Low Countries", Switzerland, Austria, "The Balkans" etc, you'd get nowhere with even if you could play them! This is not a global geo-political! It's just Europe, Palestine and North Africa. It could have worked as quite a nice entry level "geo-political". But it just don't. There are also issues with it running on modern Win10 / 11 systems. Though it runs on Win10 for me ok.

经典策略＋即时战略类游戏《侵略：统治欧洲》，粗中有细，内容丰富，妙趣横生，为童年补票。（该游戏有汉化版本）

Ein Mix aus Hearts of Iron und Total War? Nichts wie her damit,...tjahaha,..zu früh gefreut. Zuerst, ja das Spiel ist eine Art Mischung aus Hearts of Iron und Total War. Man spielt auf einer Übersichtskarte die Europa und etwas vom Nahem Osten und Nordafrika zeigt, auf dieser Karte wird die Wirtschaft geplant, Spione zum spionieren in Feindesland verschoben, Armeen ausgehoben und diplomatische Beziehungen zu anderen Ländern aufgebaut. Leider alles sehr rudimentär, also sehr begrenzt gehalten. Ressourcen gibt es ganze zwei,..diplomatische Beziehungen spielen sich zwischen Frieden, Krieg und Bündnis ab,...Forschung ist im Vergleich zu HoI auch stark vereinfacht. Aber dann kommt etwas was HoI bisher nicht hat,...echte Taktikkämpfe,...würden denn die Truppen auch das machen was man von Ihnen verlangt,..man kommt sich eher wie bei "Ich glaub' mich knutscht ein Elch" vor,..die Truppe macht was sie will. Gute Idee, leider keine gute Umsetzung.
