This is an interesting twist on your basic strategic level war game. In addition to the usual hex wargame features, a research tree and some political aspects have been added. You are fighting in the entire European Theatre, so the scope is grand. Air, Land and Sea units are all employed, including subs (wolf packs) which can attack allied shipping and reduce manufacturing points which are used to purchase additional units. Technology research adds some more depth to the game and will boost replay value, I think.
What is truly amazing to me is that this game is only a 36 MB download and only 60 MB's installed. Pretty good fun/MB ratio! ;)
For my fellow wargamers, I will note that this game eases off on historical accuracy a little in favor of a friendlier and more flexible gameplay experience. That's fine by me, but something to be aware of. (Still a lot of good historical stuff here, don't get me wrong.)
All in all, this looks like it will be a fun game. The graphics are fine, the GOG sample screens are an accurate guide as to what to expect. The game runs fine on my MSI X340 Vista laptop, btw, (netbook+ class) and seems to have very modest system requirements. So probably will run on any netbook.
If you like wargames and are looking for something a bit different, this title is definitely worth a look and is a good deal for $9.99 -- gotta love GOG. ;)
