What is Codename: Panzers - Cold War?
This real-time strategy game imagines a 1949 war between Western powers and the Soviet bloc after a plane crash over Berlin. You command squads and vehicles through a mission-based campaign, occupying or destroying buildings while weather and terrain affect combat. The campaign mostly follows NATO forces but sometimes puts you on the KGB's side; you can also replay missions for a higher score or play multiplayer matches.

- +you want a mission-based campaign and multiplayer matches
- +you enjoy replaying missions to improve your score
Not for you if...
