Rating: - HOA Anthology
My husband liked the Hearts of Iron II so much and requested these. He's not been disappointed and likes it so much (Armageddon)I rarely see him when he's into a game. It did what it was supposed to do. Good Game.
Rating:  - Grand Strategy Done Right.
Be Encouraged! This is the BEST WW2 detailed strategy game to date. I have played this genre since the 1970's on board games to computer games.
Be Warned! This is Grand Stategy played on a clean world map, not a "point and shoot" first person. Graphics and sound are good but are not designed to target an "action game" buyer. This is a "board game" done on the computer. This is a Thinking game. It is a "Real Time" game but you can pause time, make decisions, and change direction for ... Read More
Rating:  - no control over battles?
I am very much into grand strategy games. So far though this one has not hooked me.

Being a long-time addict of Hearts of Iron II and Hearts of Iron II Doomsday (an extension of Hearts of Iron II through 1953), I was excited to see the Hearts of Iron II Armageddon expansion through to 1964. In that respect, it was the Hearts of Iron that all die-hard fanatics have come to know and love. My only disappointment was that the technology tree was not expanded further, with more options available to research. Other than that, it was exactly what I was looking for.
Rating: - Great game
This is a great game if you don't need all the latest graphical and sound advancement. There are no battle scenes, no explosions, no sound of gunfire...This is more or less an interactive board game. But there is A LOT of depth here that you could never do with a board game.
Managing your economy, scientific advancements, leadership, and everything in-between will make the difference between world domination and historical obscurity. This game mostly plays close to historical events, ... Read More
