very short demo but is very exciting

Pros: Guns- first i must say any war game has to have good weapons, and this game delivers. The weapons feel great and react with kickback and knockout force like they should. Although you only get to use about 4 weapons in the demo and the mg42 they all fell great when you fire them. Characters- the characters in the German and British both look excellent and the chatter is great. Voice acting- The voices are very well down in the game. They shout when your in a battle what to do, where to go, and if someones shot they'll yell. The mouths also move correctly with the words which I like to see. Graphics- only 1 thing to say, THEY ARE AMAZING.

Cons: Big download size for a demo which is pretty short.

Demo Shows it, Great Game

Pros: First off let me say i have a download manager and even though this is a great demo and is only 162.36 mb big, i had it running in 5 minutes. But this is only 1 of the games strong points. -For one the graphics are great for a strategy game. You can zoom up to the point you can see the soldiers faces. The terrain also looks good if you can get your eyes off of the characters.

- 2ndly, the sound is great. You can hear your soldiers shout and yell and bang their swords as their getting ready to fight. When you tell your army to march or charge you can hear the footsteps and how loud they are depending on their size. So if you have 1 archer hell make a little patter. Then charge your elephants and you can hear the devestation it will bring.

-Finally, the strong point to this game is the battles. You can get up close and see them stabbing, slashing, and fighting for their lives. The command interface is also great and every command you need is on a hotkey. Plus for the demo, the tutorial will show you how to play. This is good since not all games will teach you and will just throw you out in a mission and you'll run out and be shot.

Cons: The demo is short, and I've read reviews of the actuall game and it seems alot more exciting than what they show you here.
