A playable demo for
Men of War is now available, offering a sample of
the upcoming installment in Best Way's World War II strategy series that began
with
Soldiers: Heroes of World War II and continued with
Faces of War.
Here's word on the contents of the demo: "The entire opening stage of the
Russian campaign, which sees a small unit from the Red Army taking on the might
of the Germans. This initial mission helps players to get to grips with the
controls before culminating in a tightly fought battle between a Russian tank
and a convoy of German vehicles. There's also an opportunity to try out Men of
War's 'direct control' feature during the demo. This enables you to manoeuvre
units using the directional keys, rather than pointing and clicking. You can get
behind the controls of a tank to smash through obstacles, crush soldiers under
your tracks and fire armour-piercing shells at enemy placements." The demo
debuted on
IncGamers, and the 249 MB download is now mirrored on
AtomicGamer,
ComputerGames.ro,
Gamer's Hell,
Games
On Net, and
Strategy
Informer.
