Still, I love the cold war unit roster and combat, and the command system where you're issuing significantly time-delayed orders and need a good battle plan going in was a novel and compelling gameplay experience.

In short, Armored Brigade II is everything the first game was on launch but with full 3D graphics and many small changes that add up to a significantly more engaging, immersive and authentic Cold War Real Time Tactics experience.

While not as graphically rewarding as for example Graviteam Mius Front the learning curve is much kinder, and I find the game far more gripping.
