[PC] DRM-free - Free - Theatre of War 2: Kursk 1943 - Indiegala

180

This game is free again on Indiegala. It was free before so you might already have it.

From the website:

Theatre of War 2: Kursk 1943, the historically accurate and detailed real-time tactical war game, welcomes military history fans to the battle which gave the Red Army the strategic initiative for the rest of the war. Assuming the role of either the Russian or German battle group commander, acting under direct orders of division commanders Ivan Chistyakov or Valter Hoernlein, players will control their troops in historical scenarios on precisely reconstructed authentic battlefields.

Five days of July

In Theatre of War 2: Kursk 1943, you control the units of the battle group belonging to German division Grossdeutschland or the forces of the Soviet 67th Guards Rifle Division and 3rd Mechanized Corps, which participated in the defensive stage of the Kursk battle at the south face of the Kursk salient. There are two campaigns:

  • Fiery Salient (forces of the Soviet 6th Guards and 1st Tank Army, July 5-10, 1943)

  • Operation Citadel (German division Grossdeutschland Kampfgruppe, July 5-10, 1943)

Each campaign consists of up to 9 engagements and puts you in charge of a typical military unit from that period. Each soldier and officer is a unique personality with characteristics and skills which can change during the campaign. Careful planning and troops selection is recommended before each engagement.

  • Take control over the mighty Soviet or German battle group in one of the battles which changed the history of the world

  • Simulation-level visibility, ballistics and armor penetration systems. All vital vehicle systems and crew members are individually modeled

  • Two historical campaigns (up to 18 missions total) and an unlimited number of customizable engagements waiting to be created with a few mouse clicks using the built-in Mission Generator

  • Sophisticated AI for both enemy and your own units

  • Over 60 Soviet, German and lend-leased US and British player-controllable units (not counting various infantry squads)

  • Unsurpassed management of battle personnel. You can choose, assign, promote and award up to several thousand people with various characteristics. You can even rename units for easier recognition in the heat of battle

  • Team multiplayer for up to 8 players (control of key points or assault/defense) with reinforcements, artillery barrages and air strikes

  • Tools for creating your own missions and maps (built-in Mission Generator, wizard-like Simple Editor, full-blown Mission Editor and 3D Map Editor).

Enjoy!

        Thanks from me as well! Appreciate you taking the trouble to post them.

        You may also want to look at https://freebies.indiegala.com/?ref=freebies for the current freebies at IG. Some of them may not have been posted here previously as I was able to add them to my library.

          They have all been posted except the Hentai ones which cannot be posted due to being considered adult material (yeah, I know GTA V can be posted where some rather harmless Hentai puzzles cannot be but I do not make the rules).
          But thank you for trying to make my life a bit easier - that is always greatly appreciated.

      • I've got work today, but I plan on playing some video games tonight and on Sunday.

        Hope your weekend is a relaxing one with family and some time playing video games.

        Merry Christmas and a happy new year Lysander :D

  • It says "To download the game just go to your Library in the "Showcase" section."

    I went there and it's not there?

    Edit: it's on page 6 of the showcase list!

    • You must be logged in, have added the game to your library, and then go there.
      Sometimes you need to refresh the page.
      Definitely there for me.

      • I was obviously logged in. But yeah I've edited my comment just before you replied.

        • Which means you got it last time which was a while ago
