Third reich game pc

Doctors use this sort of thing on insomniacs who don't respond to strong drugs. Worst of all, considering this is a wargame for hard-core wargamers no one else would even give it a second glance it is woefully easy to trounce the AI, which has a tendency to do stupid things like have England send all their guys to North Africa while the Nazis are browsing at Harrods.

Plus, turns take forever and a day to finish, especially when the AI moves. There are large go-make-a-cheese-and-pickle-sandwich periods during which you sit there watching ugly counters move on an ugly screen, wishing your mom had bought you another game. Even Mode. Look, there's a way to do a deep, complex game of grand WWII strategy without such a crippling system and an overwhelming torrent of extraneous detail and poorly explained rules.

A game by people who give a damn what the experience of the user is. The only people who would even be faintly interested in this are friendless Third Reich nuts. Hell, at least when you play the Third Reich board game it's a social experience, and you can follow as many or as few of the rules as you want. Clash of Steel and even High Command are both now available in The Definitive Wargame Collection 2 from SSI, and both are still readily playable, deep, and, though published years ago, better-looking and more user-friendly than Third Reich.

The pc version had a few problems: 1. Some rules not implemented, e. Some rules implemementation partially incorrect, e. AI totally unable to use the Offensive Option in a meaningful way break through and encircle.

Both the Campaign and scenario are included, with challenging AI scripted for both sides. How do you guys have any time left to play anything else but Field of Glory 2? Will consider all propositions, thanks! Though I have to admit on the strategic level I prefer the game system of the 3R boardgame to all computer games. I agree! I tried to be faithful to the original with my A3R mod.

Strategic Command does not allow unit stacking or provide for 3-month seasonal turns. So I pretty much doubled the map scale and went with monthly day turns. If anything, this provides some additional operational level richness without compromising the grand strategy flavor. I've grown to like it. Other than that and some other differences with the Strategic Command game mechanics, the force pools and BRP economics are still faithful to the original.

I did have to split the air fleets into separate fighters and tactical bombers, but again the numbers are still the same; e. Germany has 6 fighters and 6 tac bombers, and these can be devastating when concentrated but it's still a big map!

Anyways, I wish there would be a remake. Perchance to dream I don't know how much good it would do but anyone interested in getting a working copy of Avalon Hill's Third Reich might want to vote for it on GOG's Community Wishlist. Lee in reply to SJRhino8. Yes and no. A3R would be even harder to convert. And, sadly, the AI was horrible. Well, 3R 4th Ed. New Messages. NET Advanced Edition 2.
