Panzer Campaigns: Kiev '43

14.05.2021
In Kiev '43, as the commander of the Russian 1st Ukrainian Front, you have several armies at your disposal to defeat the vaunted German Wehrmacht. As the German commander you will have at your disposal the powerful panzer forces able to wreck havoc upon their Soviet foes. Included are scenarios that let you recreate all four phases of the campaign from the battle in the Bukrin bridgehead to the final battle near Korosten where the Germans made one last attempt to destroy the Russian forces and roll on to victory. The stage is set! All that is lacking is for you to kick off one of the most whirlwind campaigns on the Eastern Front!
After the debacle at Kursk in July of 1943, the Russians followed up their victory with a series of campaigns to drive the Germans out of Russia. The first of these was Operation Kutuzov, lasting from 14 July to 14 August, where the Axis forces tried to hold a line at Bryansk but failed. After this the Russians kicked off Operation Rumiantsev, from 3 - 24 August, where the Soviets captured Kharkov and liberated the eastern Ukraine. The next major objective on their list was to cross the Dnepr River line and liberate Kiev, the third largest city in the Soviet Union. Facing the Soviet Union's forces to defend Kiev were the depleted 4th Panzerarmee and the 8th Army forces. Hitler's vaunted "East Wall" relied very much upon the Dnepr River to hold back the advancing Russian armies. The failure to properly fortify this line meant that the German soldiers would be fighting in trenches rather than bunkers. Following a series of river crossings in locations north and south of Kiev, the Russians finally broke through the Germans lines north of Kiev and captured the Ukrainian capital by the 6th of November. What followed after this was a swift pursuit of the German forces only to be checked by the arrival of armored reserves. What followed was a classic pitched battle where the Wehrmacht and SS forces tried to smash the Russians and retake Kiev.

In Philippines ’44, as MacArthur you will command units from both the US Sixth and Eighth Armies as well as US Army Air Force and Naval air groups. The Japanese forces, led by General Yamashita, had at his disposal, three major commands, the Shobu, Shimbu and Kembu Groups. Yamashita’s command outnumbered the Allied forces but had to defend a vast territory with limited knowledge of where the Allied forces may land. All that is lacking is for you to kick off one of the largest land campaigns of the Pacific War. Philippines ’44 is a fascinating title, focused on a rarely covered campaign. There is both a range of operations as well as diverse forces for both sides. Actions ranged from amphibious landings, airdrops (for both sides!) to a range of land actions. The environment and terrain are much more of a hinderance to action than is the case in Europe and the juncture of weather, jungle and other challenges impacts the speed of movement and play. Philippines '44 includes 76 Scenarios – covering all sizes and situations, including a solo tutorial scenario plus specialized versions for both head to head play and vs. the computer AI. Philippines '44 provides multiple play options including play against the computer AI, Play by E-mail (PBEM), LAN & Internet "live" play as well as two player hot seat.

Battle Academy is an action-packed tactical strategy game where you have to take command of a select group of units and lead them through battles on the many different fronts of World War II. As a commander, you will have to employ real world combined-arms tactics in order to secure victory. This means you will have to lay ambushes to surprise opposing forces, use suppressing fire to pin them, flank hostile armor for maximum effect and, if necessary, assaults the enemy to clear strong points. In some cases you will also have access to powerful off map artillery and air support with the capacity to weaken the enemy defenses or even stop an enemy attack dead in its tracks. At the same time you will have to play close attention to the morale of your own troops and use recon units to spot any hostile ambushes or flanking attacks.

In the summer of 1940, a Reich meant to last a Thousand Years confronted an Empire Upon Which the Sun Did Not Set. One magnificent weapon, first conceived as a private venture in 1934, proved decisive. In the skies over London, and in the years to follow, a shout of "Achtung - Spitfire!" was invariably followed by shattering losses.

The second world war has come to an end but yet no peace has been settled for residing civilians and soldiers in a remote battlefield. Nazi scientists have failed to successfully shut down and contain experimental labs. Experiments have broken from constraint and are now wreaking havoc upon the wasteland. Due to high threat levels, outside support cannot manage to intervene without direct notice, it's up to straggling survivors to take survival into their own hands and unravel the mystery of biological and supernatural haunting's. Survival is our co-operative open world experience in development that offers both offline single-player and a host-sessioned online multiplayer experience that allows for up to three friends (or random players) to collectivize and work together to scavenge, loot, support the growth of their outpost and fight to protect its walls in the aftermath together. This living world will give the player endless reasons to explore and interact with such as ongoing open world events ranging from hordes, rescues, and bosses. Players will be able to progress their survivor by leveling a tree of skills and beneficial traits. Survival is where the player will have to put their true strategy to the test by building the ultimate outpost and load-out to take on the aftermath. You build your story. Like survival, all environmental threats and events are still creeping around every corner, however, the player will be able to approach Quarantine solo or accompany up to three other players as a team against other teams bringing their survival strategies into play. All players start off with minimal firepower and are to work their way up the power scale by scavenging or crafting equipment and weapons with materials found throughout the aftermath. Double your resources by looting your player victims to increase your chances of success in your next battle. Players will be able to build their outposts with a few limitations as well as advance its upgrades for all around defense against player attacks. Quarantine brings a nerve wracking experience as players can lose all of their progress in a blink of an eye. Teams that are fully eliminated are removed from the match entirely. Players who are downed may crawl to safety and be picked up freely by allies. However, if eliminated, your team will need a revival syringe to bring you back into the fight which can be found in rare loot drops and/or crafted from a lengthy recipe of uncommon materials. The last team standing will be notified and rewarded and given an option to opt out of their current match. Winning teams may stay in their current match if desired and continue their battle against the environment itself.
