"Axis & Allies"

Downloaded a demo - seems alright, goes someway to simulating the fluid nature of WW2 combat- i.e movable HQs etc, but it's one of those Empire Earth sytle games where one map has 5 cities on it, which in reality are about 800 miles from each other. No peek of the campaign mode, which sounds like a basic Total War set up. It's okay really, not great.

I want Rome: TW.

Armies of Exigo multiplayer demo is much better in my opinion.

It's crap. I hate it. I like the movable HQs but thats about it.

I hate the way tanks get scared of one guy with an anti-tank gun and start driving away in the oppsite direction giving you no control at all.

I've been meaning to try the demo, looks OK a bit like a cut down version of Total War, but in a WWII setting.

For the ultimate WWII game though, I recommend Soldiers, part RTS part FPS, it lets you control tanks, vehicles and soldiers with FPS control method, add some excellent graphics and some cool destructable terrain and bingo, you've got one fine RTS.
