It's 66% off on steam, and i would SERIOUSLY consider purchasing it if you consider yourself remotely an RTS fan!

It's not your fun happy unit spam play like C&C, Starcraft etc it's brutally hard, realistic and EACH unit has to be given as much care and attention as any other. There's no highligting X ammount of X unit and right clicking here.

BUY. IT.

The CO-OP is great also, so grab men of war (the original) if you want even more CO-OP fun.

the voice acting in the men of war demo is appalling, and it's poorly tutorialized.

is the single player any better in this.

Lol tutorial.

Assault squad is primarily a multiplayer but the single player consists of skirmish missions that can be played coop.

Well I never played the first one, so I can't really compare.

Seems to be alot of people playing, at night the servers are full of bots though.

Men of War is probably has one of the greatest concepts in any RTS

- Destructible enviorment(no seriously, you can take apart everything on a map... destry houses, destry cover... run shit over.. its great)
- Direct control (not easy too use, could use some work.. but its really cool... you can control one unit on the field which is really neat.. they should add FPS mode..)
- voice acting is horrid though...
- multiple campaigns

It's a really good game overall... you can pick up anything that drops on the battlefield.. if your troops runs out of ammo, you can pick up new guns... its really cool..

Although, I wish they would add a "auto reload" button, I hate having to rearm my whole swuad manually.
