It’s based off the engine used in ARMA II Operation Arrowhead. It’s set in southern Poland during the Soviet offensive in the summer of 1944. We play as Germans or Russians.
The German campaign focuses on slowing down the Soviet advance, while the other wants to cut through as fast as possible. It’s not all on foot - players control tanks and aircraft.
