Pinnacle of WW2 grand strategy...

Reviewed in the United States on November 6, 2011

Verified Purchase

This game was a definite improvement over the first iteration of HOI,which was itself an improvement over Avalon Hill's "Rise and Fall of the 3rd Reich" which I played on a tabletop as a teenager. In HOI2 you get to call the important shots which determine the course of history and the interface ensures that calling those shots doesn't become tedious. Warfare is scaled to the divisional level. I can't imagine wanting to play a WW2 game of grand strategy in which one gets to micro-manage battles on a tactical level as it would take forever, but one does have a great many options to play for influencing the outcome of any given battle; options would include air support(air superiority is key in this game), naval bombardment,providing support from flanking units,choice of commander and quality/type of troops. The answer to all my prayers was the Armageddon expansion which permits play into the 1960's which gives you time,through research, to upgrade your old horse cavalry divisions into air cavalry,air mobile, helicopter mounted units. (these guys are great for quelling local rebellions on the far flung steppes of occupied Russia). This is plenty of time to settle world mastery beyond any shadow of a doubt. I havn't tried HOI3 but from the reviews I've read, I believe I'll stick with this version. For those of you considering buying this game, it does fine with Windows 7.

Old school strategy game with thinking man's pace

Reviewed in the United States on August 6, 2013

If you're into being an armchair general who likes to micromanage his armies, logistics, builds and strategies all while enjoying watching them come to fruition (or not) this is the game for you. I play this on my PC using Windows 7 and have had very few problems. I do though get an occasional message box indicating something wrong with the shutdown sequence when I exit the program but it doesn't happen often and when it does I just have to turn off the computer and restart it. It doesn't seem to effect or change the game in any way and I'm not sure if its the game program or my PC that's causing it. But this is a small price to pay for a game that's been a real pleasure to play.

The armies have basic units such as divisions, single ships called flotillas, air squadrons, etc. You can build those using your resources gained from home provinces, conquered provinces or trade. These units can get upgraded when you have researched the necessary knowledge which also takes up your resources, time and manpower. All this happens as time goes by historically. There are 4 scenarios you can play and you can choose to play what major countries during WWII you like. There's a lot of nuance in the game and it makes every game interesting. You can't control the troops while they battle your enemy but if you see you're getting beat you can pull out and save them by retreating. The game gives you options of slowing, speeding or pausing the game. You will definitely be pausing a lot cause there's a lot to keep track of.

I'm on the older side of most wargamers and for me I need a little more time to think about things. But for the strategist this is a great game.

Makes a Great Game Even Better

Reviewed in the United States on August 8, 2013

I purchased Hearts of Iron II (HOI) a number of years of ago and have played it off and on since then. I purchased the original game because I enjoy a "Grand Stategy" format. This Anthology is great for many reasons. It includes a "fixed" version of the original game I have, getting rid of some rather annoying bugs, though not all of them. But in addition includes two other editions which are expansion of my original game, Doomsday and Armmegdon. Each takes the game farther into more current history and provide for some interesting "What if?" scenarios. Throw in the original HOI and you get 4 games for a fantastic price. The replayability is almost endless. If controlling the individual aspects of a battle is more your style then I would suggest another game, but for those interesting in conflict on a grand global scale, you need look no further. This is one great collection.

A Versatile WW2 Strategy Game You Will Play Again and Again

Reviewed in the United States on August 2, 2013

Verified Purchase

This is probably one of the most versatile WW2 strategy games ever made for the PC, and I can't even calculate how many hours I've spent playing it. Whether you want to command a great power, try to create an eastern European empire as Romania, hold off the USSR as tiny Finland, or sit out the war as Brazil, you can do it all. What would have happened if Britain entered the war on the side of the Axis? What if Germany became a democracy? You can find out. Moreover, this game is highly customizable. You can create entirely new countries (with a little imagination and some knowledge of basic text editing and photoshop), technologies, units, and events. One last thing: if you are deciding whether to buy this game or Hearts of Iron III - buy this version! Hearts of Iron III is too complicated and nowhere near as fun.

Einfache Aufmachung. Leider Funktioniert der Registrierungscode bei mir nicht. Aber das ändert nichts am Spielspaß. Insgesamt genau das was ich erwartet habe. Leider muss man die Spiele auch manuell aus dem Ordner installieren. Bei Autoplay schmiert irgendwann das Menü ab.
