Most idiotic vehicle pathfinding ever. Tell 3 tanks to go up the road, and they'll park 30 feet away from each other no matter where you click, and always in a totally ineffective pattern.

WWI was a bad war. most people would rather forget about it. There really was nothing heroic about it, just slaughter. Cavalry vs machine guns, 1 week artillery barrages. the whole war was a stalemate, that only ended when both sides ran out of people to fight the war with. When the next crop of babies was old enough, the old spat was finished with WWII.

I played through the demo - I had fun, couldn't quite figure out why it would spread out multiple units when I would move them together (i.e. the green x's would appear in some random pattern when I went to move them to a new spot). I'll probably pick this one up.

It's a decent WW2 RTS game from what I can see, but I find Blitzkrieg way more tactical, having a better ambiance and being more fun overall. I'll play that one and wait for Panzers, this one isn't special enough. Especially the terrain textures suck.
