Indulge my silly goofy question

HoI 4 does look pretty neat but it doesn't look like it will be out until the end of fall

Strategic Command: Global Conflict covers the entire war, all theaters, start to finish. But it isn't small units. Also check out Supreme Ruler 1936.  I'm not sure what you are asking for even exists. I could be wrong. I await other replies.

SPWaW and the JTCS has all nations OOB's and with both games you can, as far as I know (i've not played either) create your own battles/scenarios. You have access to every nations units from 39-45

I do prefer the more 3D look over top down or the nato counter style hence my choices I've listed, but again, I'm not a "pro" when it comes to war gaming knowledge.

It might be a bit more work but Strategic Command: Global Conflict does have a campaign editor. For me, it's the best 'whole WWII' game.

Combat mission to cover the ETO

Witp ae for the Pacific

The guy is looking for tactical scale.

JTCS is the cheapest. All in one package.  Since he ruled out the free SPWW2 (Steel Panthers).

He wants to game the ENTIRE war in tactical scale? OK, that will take awhile.

Married to a woman who is very independent and we have no kids. I have time

 :o Does such a game exist?

[panzerde]

Not just tactical for the entire war, all theaters, but 3D and not very complex, but not Panzer General.

I'm pretty sure not as either a single game or a series.

[Swatter]

There are a range of Close Combat titles. Try that route.

[bayonetbrant]

it's almost like you need a WWII scenario for the Civ series :D

[GJK]

Man up and learn to play ASL.  There's scenarios to cover battles on every front, every action....EVERY one.  And there's no NATO symbols.  ;)

I was wondering myself... ???

I'd buy that for a dollar!  ^-^

Take the time to learn to play Combat Mission.  It's worth it.

+1 QFT. And, if you're playing it real-time, try playing it in turn-based mode. You'll probably find it easier to get your head around.

Thanks undercover

CM is out for me. Too complicated (tried the demo and was lost even after a couple hours)

I have a naval game already.

Looking for land warfare only!

I think you're pretty much out of luck for the Pacific War if you don't want a naval game.  It was 90% a naval war.  OK, make it naval/air.

Also, those guys are right.  Combat Mission rocks.  And once you learn it, it isn't that difficult to play, at least so long as you avoid the monster scenarios.
