With an additional 14 stand-alone scenarios Sudden Strike rounds out at a healthy 50 missions. Three campaigns are featured, one each for the Allied, German and Russian forces spanning 12 missions. Sudden Strike is not a realistic wargame (for that, turn to Close Combat 5 or Combat Mission) but it is a very well-presented, enjoyable game that has a lot going for it. So it's good to see that CDV's new WWII RTS Sudden Strike, while remaining a tactical game bereft of typical RTS base-building and harvesting, manages to at last meet the bill. It's thus quite surprising that while Westwood has just released its eleventh Dune 2 RTS derivative, no-one's managed as yet to produce a decent WWII RTS. And even then, that's a game which puts its emphasis squarely on small-scale tactical action. If you mention the words "WWII" and "RTS" in the same sentence, little springs to mind with the exception of Close Combat.
