  An amazing WW2 turn-based board game, highly recommended to the fans of Panzer General, Panzer Corps.

  just got the 4 game bundle was looking for a break from high stress turn base games the bigger devs make . wow was this a surprise a lot is packed into the game some is not , so will not be for everyone . but looking for a good shot out game with minimal supply planning this can be it . One thing I like is no max turns just objectives But you have to keep going since you will run out of supply but collecting objectives or Parachute drops gets you more . I played on normal and a few battles had to restart . their are few things would like to see in the game like a next unit button or some transportation with artillery guns but none are game losers just need plan little more I like a undo button since you can move up to a unit and get slaughtered so use it as a "scouting" guide Yes buy it on sale at gates of Moscow now cannot wait play the Russians in other game bought in bundle . enjoy with a beer and sandwich

  Dated graphics but good game play. Problem is that you can be playing it and the unit you are moving just takes off and moves off of the screen and doesn't come back. At the same time, the game will freeze. Can't really give it a thumbs up due to this, otherwise I would.

  Simple little simulation. NOT going to test an Avalon Hill fan. Wait for it to be on sale, as it has no scenario designer so you only get what it comes with. Limited replayability. A few minor glitches where the game wont let you attack or even move into a grid that you should be able to. So sometimes, you cant eliminate an enemy unit.

  Nice little tactical game playable in a single setting from a very small design studio. Good concepts that allow quite the range of play styles. AI is surprisingly aggressive, don't be fooled by the scripted response in the tutorial or first scenario,; the AI will bite. Very large campaign tree with some non-linear branching. Self described by the designer as a work in progress and Frontline is very responsive to input; they deliver a very worthwhile gaming value. I enjoy it and like supporting small design studios as the next gem may leap forth.

  "Frontline: The Great Patriotic War" (WW2 Eastern Front from the Russian perspective) is a fun little unit-based, strategy/tactics game, but "Frontline: Panzer Blitzkrieg!" (from the German perspective) takes it to a whole new level. The UI is easy and intuitive. The mechanics are straightforward and easily understood and implemented. The audio and sounds are good (other than when you move infantry by truck you hear marching feet instead of wheeled movement). Between scenarios/battles you can only purchase units from a select pool, so no RPG building your own units like Panzer Corps, but to be honest it makes for a faster playing game, as you don't get so invested in each unit (so you don't have heartburn when one gets killed, so you are less likely to scum save), as they are only under your command for that battle. I played a dozen scenarios/battles on Normal (the highest difficulty level) and was streamrolling by buying several units, only to find out that I needed my prestige to rebuild damaged units and my advance came to a screeching halt. I started over, paid more attention and just finished 1942 and am headed into 1943. There are a ton of battles. I must say, once you figure out the formula for success, go slow only buy one or at most two units (typical an artillery or 88AA/AT gun and maybe a good tank) and use the dig in and ambush perks to protect your advance, etc., I get decisive victories every time now. So, I would say it needs, besides Very Easy, Easy, Normal, and Hard and Very Hard difficulty level. There have been no crashes, and only one bug, which didn't allow me to get a decisive victory (as a pillbox was marked as German when it was supposed to be Russian, though I finally killed it by just placing units right next to it and letting it attack them until it also took enough damage to die) and there were a couple Russian Infantry units in the woods behind it, that I guess were suppose to be ambushers, but they wouldn't come out and I couldn't move next to them or shoot them (though one eventually did come out and attack and I killed it). But that is really minor compared to the 23 hours I have in the game so far. At the $9.99 price it is worth it and at the $13.99 price to also get the Great Patriotic War as well, they are bargains. For such a small dev team, really, two thumbs up. Outstanding! They have been putting out updates at a fast pace, answering questions in threads, etc. If you like Panzer Corps, Order of Battle, etc., these aren't as complicated, the battles don't take as long and you can relax and just enjoy the historically accurate content and battle progression (you get choices between 2-3 scenarios), etc. It doesn't have the depth of the others, but it is fun none-the-less. I hope they keep improving on it!
