Look, Ma! Two Heads!
Another interesting game is being developed from Russia. It's called Theatre of War (before known as Wartime Command/Battlefield Command/WW2 RTS), which was cancelled some time ago by Codemasters.

It's developed by 1C and published in west by Battlefront. Uses IL2 graphic engine and it will be a tactical real time game with great realism.

Have been looking forward to this for like 1-2 years. It should have been out a long time ago.

Back then it looked really great, now its not that ground breaking but it still looks very nice.

Hope it will hit the shelves some time soon.
 
Well i don't think it will be a new CM, but yes it will be more realism than most games.

Few bad signs tho.

No inf in buildings
No Mortars
Capped ranges to something like 1000 m ( still not confirmed )
Seems a bit tank heavy ( But it will be easy to mod )

Other than this is seems to be a very nice game!

Demo comming in a few weeks i think allso.
 
Infantery in buildings is usual, ToW is not like CB because every unit is a real unit with their own movement and orders. It would be very hard to include buildings combat. CM does not move individual units, only "imaginary" platoons.
Range is not 1000 m, map will be about 8km2, but combat zone "only" 4km2, but there will not be 1km limit for the weapons.

I don't understand what do you mean "Seems a bit tank heavy"
 
woot can't wait for this game to come out
Guns, blood, gore, and corpses! What more could a gamer ask for?

C'mon general, just one more dead puke and I'll hit the road!
