Making History: The Second World War

Excellent game, need more like it

These Making History games are very good wargames. This one is one of the only WW2 global wargames you can play that enables stacking, which is essential for realistic naval and land combat results. The mechanics of this game make the warfare take central place but you still have a lot of depth regarding diplomacy and trading for needed resources. There is also a sizeable research tree. But its the warfare that really shines here. This is played over provinces like HoI4 and you can move whatever units you want into each province - army units, artillery and planes - and configure the stacks however you want. You can have five or size stacks in one province if you want so can keep garrisons separate from artillery and the army. You can attack in multiple directions by splitting stacks as well. Upgrading units is very painless. Once you have researched a better unit you can upgrade them all for a certain cost which is really nice. So you don't end up with loads of outdated units like you do in hoI4. Fleets are particularly well done. You can stack fleets for mutual protection, and have separate ships for scouting etc and sub fleets for interdiction. Ships can lay mines also. There are a lot of country wide development aspects in this game as well from building roads and railways, new buildings, mines, coastal defences and airfields etc. You get regular new updates on the progress of the war which is nice so you are kept informed how things are going elsewhere on other fronts. The map is fully 3d so you can rotate and tilt it to get the best view. Overall this is a highly undervalued grand strategy wargame most similar to Hearts of Iron but with less country management and more wargaming emphasis and with direct control over planes and ships which is an improvement over HoI4 imo. The devs also do a superb First World War Game along the same lines which is one of my favourite and most played games of all time. Highly recommended wargames.

I love the game, but this out of memory tab always popping up in editor is annoying. seriously need to fix this bug.

O jogo é realmente muito bom, já gastei muitas horas criando o IMPERIO TRANSOCEANICO BRASILEIRO, enfim, vale o seu dinheiro.

Dieses Spiel ist paradox, man ist eigentlich von Anfang an auf der Verliererstraße. Tutorial schlecht. Handel schlecht. Kampfhandlungen schlecht. Diplomatie schlecht. Kurzum das Spiel ist rausgeschmissenes Geld. Ich habe es entfernt.

I find the UI difficult to adjust to. I prefer the Muzzy Lane version

Initially it had serious bugs and performance issues made it virtually unplayable but got much better over time. still performance drops at late stages of game but the game design is phenomenal.

玩到三百多回合后由于单元太多，会很卡，会强制弹出 但是内容和可玩性真的很高，我离线玩了几百小时（因为是离线的所以没记录在游戏时长中） Nice to play，but： - OUT OF MEMORY ERROR - DIPLOMACY

strange ecomonic model with big restriction for produce factories. Very slow build factories, in previous version of game has better .

muito bom
