Soldiers: Heroes of World War II
"BLOODY AWESOME"... PC Gamer Source
Soldiers - Heroes
of World War II drops you into the heart of the most intense WWII
combat-action. Take control of the most elite American, British, German or
Russian forces ever to impact on the war-zone. Up against overwhelming odds,
you must complete your missions incorporating stealth, guile, speed and
aggression.
Mission objectives
include blowing railway tracks, kidnapping enemy officers, destroying convoys.
Be warned that much of this activity will take place behind enemy lines!
Command troops by either
using group control RTS style'point and click' commands or by using the direct
control feature for individual units, providing a more realistic and precise
style of play. The choice is yours.
Use the fully interactive
environment, tools and equipment around you to complete your objective, the way
you want to complete it. Maximise the effectiveness of your squad by assigning
tasks relevant to their individual skills. As long as you keep your men alive,
you can do whatever it takes to secure victory... nothing is pre
set.
The cunning AI means that
the enemy will attack information; retreat if necessary; look for cover; ambush
you, and even flank you. Think on your feet or your mission will end in a hail
of flame and bullets.
With four campaigns covering the
Russian, German and Allies, you'll be spoilt with choice for weapons, vehicles
and men.
Soldiers is a third-person tactical action
game that plays out like a blockbuster war movie complete with a stunning
visual engine.
With
the thrills of a 3D shooter and the depth of a RTS game, Soldiers is a
third-person tactical action game that plays out like a blockbuster war movie
complete with a stunning visual engine.
Pitching the player headlong into the war-torn
battlegrounds of Europe, gameplay delivers extremely realistic yet explosive
combat scenarios. Commanding a small, highly trained team of special forces
behind enemy lines, your job is to get them in, execute the mission your way
and get out - fast!
Play as British, U.S., German or Russian
forces, in 30 action-packed missions inspired by the exploits of World War II
heroes, with authentically modelled WWII vehicles, weapons, units and ammo.
Whether you decide to stealth-it-up or go in hard with all guns blazing,
victory is there for the taking.
The control method combines the best of RTS and
3D-action gaming, using 'Team mode' to command and move an entire unit or
'Direct Control', where you jump into the thick of the action, get your hands
dirty, and take control of a single soldier. Thanks to a very high level of
detail you can pinpoint specific targets, such as shooting an enemies' helmet
clean off and follow through with an accurate sniper rifle shot to the
head!
