“Good game, with a learning curve to it.”
“When it comes to large scale ww2 RTS games, SD2 is by far one of the juiciest offerings available to us, and I most certainly recommend it to any fan of the genre. Whilst there are definitely better small scale RTSs in…”

“It is a very good WW2 game, in a bigger scale than Company of Heroes, but smaller than Hearts of Iron. Here you are an army group general, and needs to direct the battles in your part of the front. The realism is there,…”

“Maps are way too big, you simply cannot give attention to all units. You cant afford to zoom in and experience the battles becuase 100 things are happening at once, at the game design is such that your attention needs…”

“this really is a good game. shame that people are no longer playing it. played it mainly for multi but the single is just as good”
— a player, Steam review · 1,044 hrs played“very good units and value stats, historically similar and the maps are amazing, just wish they would take some inspiration from gates of hell ost front, like being able to control units individually and FPV etc, would be awesome if you could have infantry dig in also”
— a player, Steam review · 389 hrs played“I’ve been playing this game for quite a while. Mostly, I just use it to spend about an hour in the evening after work—doing small campaigns or larger ones (the so-called “General” campaigns), and occasionally playing skirmishes against AI. The following feedback is about…”
