How about WITP AE?

It is unique but most people are turned of by the complex user interface, and almost nobody ever finishes the grand campaign.
It is not a game but a way of life .

But at the current price of $16 it is a must have.

The Operational Art of War IV comes to my mind as a good alternative.

There is a basic, but free version, available of Tacview ( https://www.tacview.net/features/comparison/en/ ). You can also try out the free trial for the full version for 21 days and like most stores there are sales (end of last june price was 50% off). Tacview is most usefull in combat flight sims ...

When it first came out you could buy it without owning Shogun II and still play it on its own. Still correct today, Shogun II base game is not required. A standalone expansion to Total War: Shogun 2. The campaign begins in the year 1864 and covers the events that led up to the Meiji Restoration, na...

30 € for the stand alone game when on most online stores Shogun II complete is available for € 10 € ?!

No surprise there are negative reviews.

For me the hotkeys (that you can't rebind) aren't optimal to use. I use a small piece of software to rebind the keys (outside of the game) : Autohotkey https://www.autohotkey.com/ Install Autohotkey Rightclick in a directory and add a Autohotkey script (from the new menu) Edit the script Run script ...

BOS (and its siblings) is a bit pricey IMHO given the business model used, and is likely to be one the toughest, if not the toughest game you’ll ever master.

I'll see your IL-2 Stalingrad and raise you with Digital Combat Simulator.

Probably the toughest game I'll never master .

I took the plunge and got the base game. When this installed and worked fine I decided to get the 2nd ship pack but whatever I tried (IE - Firefox) I couldn't get to the checkout anymore. I tried again a couple hours later and this time I had success. I seems to me it doesn't matter what you do or w...

If I put two items in my cart it crashes in IE and in Firefox !

If I put the whole Jutland package in my cart the price goes up with $20 ! ($89.99 instead of store price $69.99).

Can you play the game offline ?
If there is always online DRM I will not trust Stormpowered to be around for ever.

You got me interested in this game but things like this make me hesitate : Jutland Ship Pack Summary Jutland Ship Pack 1 Jutland Ship Pack 2 Reg Price: $69.99 Sale Price: $89.99 !!!!
