  Making History Gold {/1> I have played this “version” for 4+ hours as The Soviet Union (Russia.) This version is similar to the original Making History WW2 of many years past. This version loads smoothly with my crap computer and the save-games work well. I recommend this version only as a trainer sort of game. The tech-tree and city build queues as simplistic. The graphics are, as the rest of the game, basic. Of the games in the series I like the ‘Great War’ (WW 1) simulation even though my computer takes a round about way to, load. I have played it for hundreds of hours and am in the process of conquering the world (I already won) by invading the USA, as Germany. The other ‘War of the World’ (WW 2) games are fine to play. I have extreme difficulty loading them. MOST of the time I have to reboot, take a shower and diddle around to get a save-game to reload. That is sad- it may be due to my computer. Anyway, all the games are interesting. Germany is by far the easiest to play and usually wins with some judicious playing. The UK blows- very difficult to keep the ‘Empire’ together with a rampant Germany/Japan on the loose. There is more that I could say about those plays but I will limit my post to this game. Enjoy, experiment.

  Classic grand strategy game. It probably inspired many other newer ones like Europa Universalis or Crusader Kings.

  One of my favorite games of all time. Don't let the Steam play time fool you, I've been playing this game for 7 years and it's a nice mix between simplistic and complex with enough moddability to make Skyrim take notice. The best way to describe the game would be to take Axis & Allies, make it far more indepth yet put it on an interface that even someone new to video games could understand. This video can help newcomers with understanding how the game works. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sser5Scn_Vg The premise of the game, is you take control of one of the world's many countries during World War 2, by any country, I mean anyone from the Industrial Superpower that is the United States to tiny little old Ecuador, and try to survive the tumultous battles of World War 2. Now, this game, as the title implies, doesn't exactly follow the usual script and you're free to fight the war in whatever manner you choose. You can choose Germany, and decide to never attack Czechoslovakia in the first place and instead build up your industrial might so that you can bring down France sooner. Or you can focus military production purely on navy to surpass the Naval might of the United Kingdom... or you can declare war on everyone around you and try to survive an all out brawl. I love this game, and would highly recommend it to anyone who has been a fan of Geopolitical games, Axis & Allies, or even just a fan of Turn Based Strategy games. Plus for 10 dollars, how can you go wrong?

  This game is a gem that I have just had the pleasure of buying at a great price and having a good time with. I have only played a short time, but this game is so awesome I just had to come over to this screen and tell the world how awesome it is. It's easy to pick up, fun and addictive to play, looks pretty cool, and honestly: it's really complex. There is A LOT that goes with this game. Not only does trade, diplomacy, and economy matter, but the game revolves around these aspects quite a bit. Obviously being set during WW2, your job is simple: build an empire or outproduce everywhere (or both); every decision has a consequence, and I gotta admit, it gives the average person an insight into the functioning of nations today. Wanna be an industrial power? You're gonna make less food; wanna field a large and powerful army? Hope you have financial reserves because guns aren't cheap. It's a cool little game, and I have a feeling I'm gonna fall in love with it. I kinda already have. Get it.

  Overall this game can be really fun, but as time goes on on it gets slightly boring. It has A lot of potential if they were to add in steam workshop. As of right how its fun but could be better. 7/10 edit: you can find mods on their website!!! 9/10

  Making history gold is an extended and updated version of making history : The calm and the storm. I personally prefer making history gold over Making history 2 : The war of the world. Its basically making history the calm & the storm with some of the elements of the war of the world , but with an easier system , so its easier to manage your nation. I also wasnt a fan of the new design of how the world looked , this still has the old look and feel of making history the calm & the storm so thats a nice add for me personally. I've been a fan of the series for years and own both none steam versions too , and i've put a lot of hours in the game. for the low amount you pay for the game its most definitly worth it !

  I highly do NOT recommend this game. If you wish to play as one of the major powers AND simply conduct battles for the various territories/zones (similar to Risk or Axis & Allies) then you MAY get some fun out of this. However, playing as any other nation OR playing a non-aggresive strategy as a major power is a waste of time. My major problems are as follows: 1) Agriculture/Food: I played games as Spain, Canada, Australia to see how it may be possible to become a major exporter of food to allies. To my surprise, as I increased the Agricultural capability of my zones/provinces I saw no appreciable increase in food production. Thinking that the problem was lack of infrastructure and roads, I increased that as well. Again, no change in food production to the better... things only got worse. In fact, playing as Canada and Australia - two nations that export billions in food... my nations were starving and I had to always import food from... Nazi Germany or USSR (who I was at war with).

  This is by far my favorite WWII strategy game. for its great diversity in game play makes almost every game diffrent. For i tend to play more as Germany, and most of the time i employ a similar stratagy; which is to bulid up industry, as to allow for mass production of primaraly tanks. But even though i make similar choices in my game play, the AI usially behaves slightly diffrently. For somtimes the AI may field a primaraly defensive army, and other times it may field a primaraly offensive army; the same can be said about other countries foreighn policys. However what ever the AI does they always play a smart game, being tactically aware of every move you make, and doing there best to counter, resulting in a challenging game every time. Also as for playing as the smaller nations it can be a struggle, for i have been recently playing as Canada and aside from the lack of raw materials, the small population makes it impossible to industrialize every one of your citys. But where others see this a negative, i see this more of a positive. for it trys to keep things historically accurate, by limiting smaller nations. However that being said i was still able to conquer Japan, all of Africa, and most of Europe as Canada. Mind you i did not accomplish all of this before 1945, but it does show it can be done. Over all i would recomend this game to all stratagy lovers, especially those who have playes Axis ans Allies, for this game has a very similar feel, for although it does not let you command individual regiments in a battle, its attantion to detail when it comes to the global map, and all of the little things such as city development, research, and resource management results in a rich but not overly complicated game play.
