Legends of War: Patton's Campaign

How would you like to command the Third U.S. Army? Having you step into the shoes of famed General George S. Patton is precisely the proposition in Enigma Software Produtions' HISTORY: Legends of War, an offering apparently formerly going under the name Legends of War: Patton's Campaign.

 

Here's the intel regarding what you'll be tasked with in this tactical turn-based strategy game:

 

HISTORY Legends of War takes players along the path of General Patton's Third Army at the height of the Second World War (...) With over 20 missions, 4 operations, cutting edge graphics and a unique combination of strategy game mechanics and RPG elements (...)

 

A squad-based tactics experience integrating RPG elements with unprecedented depth in an amazing historical setting. Players command a limited number of units in a sequence of thrilling and engaging missions starting in the days following the Normandy landing and leading through to the conquest of Berlin.

 

Features:

 

• Sequential Story based around historical missions allowing the player to experience real events and to alter the course of history as General Patton.

• 4 Operations with different missions including: attack, infiltration, defence, sabotage

• Unique combination of strategy game mechanics: High-Level Strategic Management and Turn-based Tactics

• Over 30 different historical based unit types (Infantry, Armoured Vehicles and Aircraft) with authentic weaponry split between German and US forces

• Special Units, including Snipers, Commandos, fighters, bombers,...

• RPG elements allow the evolution of units and Patton as the campaign rolls forward and experience is gained

• 5 difficulty levels

• Video cinematics depicting the evolution of the campaign

 

If you're curious to see a bit of gameplay there's a recent

about the console version where Producer Aaron Yeung at Slitherine also provides a brief rundown of what to expect.

 

The game has just been released in partnership with HISTORY in America and Canada, and is presently scheduled to come to European and Australian shores in February 2013.
