In it, players control individual squads and tanks to resolve the same tactical dilemmas and decisions that commanders faced during some of the most ferocious engagements of WWII. CoH features a fast and fluid system that is easy to learn but realistic to all of the unique theaters of battle portrayed. Fun: Quick simultaneous play allows players to interact without waiting. Easy: Teach a new player how to play in under 5 minutes. No charts! Historically Accurate: Portrays realistic forces and tactics. Counters: Depict individual vehicles, airplanes, guns, squads and more. Consistent: Each game in the series uses the same rule system. 2nd Edition includes all new artwork, more units & firefights.
