Summary
A new instalment in the famous Theatre of War series allows you to replay the events of the first hot war of the Cold War era, the Korean Conflict.
Unhappy with the status quo on the Korean Peninsula, the North Korean government decided that dialogue had come to an end. North Korean ground forces crossed the 38th Parallel into South Korea about 4:30 A.M. on 25 June 1950, in an armed intervention aimed at reunification. Little did anyone realise that one of the most bitter wars the world has ever seen would ensue, with thousands of casualties on all sides over a three year period. Today, North Korea and South Korea still remain in a state of war, with a shaky ceasefire regularly interrupted by armed skirmishes. The war in Korea was a defining moment for an entire generation that continues to shape modern geo-politics.
Armchair generals can put their skills to the test on a new strategic level – controlling and moving your forces over the entire Korean Peninsula, managing reserves, fuel and supplies. The situation is precarious and only skilled and daring leadership will lead to victory.
- Tactical battles are generated based on the historical situation.
- Strategic overlay greatly enhances the tactical experience.
- Non-linear dynamic campaigns that follow the ebb and flow of combat
- New units including infantry carrying helicopters in both tactical and strategic modes.
- Updated squad based control system
- Engineer Corps allow you to lay mines and clear the battlefield
- New binocular view feature for total immersion.
- Detailed replication of authentic Korean landscapes and architecture.
