Decisive Campaigns: Case Blue

I played Shadow Empire, then DC: Barbarossa (great fun!), and then this. This is the oldest of the three, and it shows.. but the engine is still great for a wargame, and this includes the various 1942-1943 scenarios so there is variety. Definitely a thumbs up if you're interested in revisiting the eventual disaster that was Fall Blau.

Pretty good. You might like it if you are interested in this specific campaign. It is not quite as good as the Barbarossa version. It is not reasonable to expect a competitive game against an AI and that is true here (played as Russians against German AI and eventually Germans were left just holding Odessa!). There are so many units there is probably too much micro-management. Map and units are very good. Interface is intuitive and easy to pick up. Liked the card play although it seems to matter only on the margins. Lots of good chrome here. I would recommend trying a smaller scenario first to see if you like it.

Haven't played this one as much as Blitzkrieg or Barbarossa as it's a bit more in depth than those two and focuses on a part of the war I find less interesting, I would class this as a mini monster. It has PBEM++ which is great, a feature sorely missing in Blitzkrieg and the latest DC game Ardennes. In any case, from the short time I've played this, I can say I would 100% recommend it, and with more time played it's likely I will consider this a masterpiece like the other DC games
