Steel Division 1944 (by wargame red dragon devs) in game trailer and unit stream

I'd play it. But I am a real rookie vs people and don't have any decks setup for it.

At the moment, Steam has Steel Division: Normandy 44 - Second Wave Bundle on sale for $24.46 U.S. I am very tempted by this offer.

So, what's the verdict? Is Steel Division: Normandy 44 worth playing?

Evil. Pure Evil.

Recently tried the 'Storm in the West' Mod- seemed to give the game better firefights.

I think it's really well done and the engine really is better suited to WWII that current generation hardware of the wargame series where a hit is a kill.

That said the game is dead. You might find some guys here that are willing to play but Eugen really screwed the pooch on how they handled this game and the server issues.

But in my opinion it remains an outstanding single player experience.

I'm still having fun playing solo. The new Attack/Defend scenarios are good for when you just want to blow crap up with WWII toys.

[Greybriar]

Thanks guys. I appreciate your thoughts. O0

I will pull the trigger on this for the single-player mode alone.

^That'll be a game changer for a lot of old grogs around here.

[Barthheart]

Who you calling old?  :-"

Yep, I may buy it now (not that I'm admitting to being old, daddio).

Actually, for me, it's less about my supposed lack of reaction time and more about the fact that when I play these games I don't get a chance to enjoy the shiny graphics
