[Feb 10, 2004, 11:32 am ET] - Share - Viewing Comments

CDV Software Entertainment has the announcement of the first planned add-on for Blitzkrieg, the World War II RTS game (thanks Frans). The page has a bunch of screenshots, and word on the planned new content:

The official add-on Blitzkrieg: Burning Horizon, throws you in even more dramatic battles of WWII. Burning Horizon offers a huge 18-missions-campaign around General Rommel, giving you the opportunity to play famous battles like Ardennes, Tripolis, Tobruk, El Alamein, Sicily and, of course, Normandy. Furthermore, the add-on contains 8 single missions, with an entire new nation at war: Japan.

50 new units like Zero fighters and Blenheim bombers, the M5 Stuart and many specialized German tanks, US Marines and Afrika Korps units fill the strategy package. Burning Horizon gives the parties a better AI: the enemy seeks weak spots in your lines, clears minefields, handles his air force cleverly. The mission objectives offer a wide range, e.g. airborne assaults, evacuations, covert ops, defense manoeuvres, counter attacks or assassinations.

well when you invoke generals like Rommel you better bring the goods...Real time strategy is usually low on strategy and high on real time...im sure Rommel may have been very good on the "Tank Rush" //end sarcasm This comment was edited on Feb 10, 16:40.
