Gameplay & Plot
Gameplay & Plot
Officers is set in World War II and it allows players to take control of Allied forces which consist of US and British Armies in a fight for control over Western Europe against Germany through its single-player campaign beginning on the beaches of Normandy and ending in Germany itself. While the game features two additional factions, Germany and the Soviet Union, they do not possess their own story campaigns. In fact the Soviet Union, while prominently featured in trailer and cover art of the game, only appears as a multiplayer faction. The game's maps can support up to 1500 units on each map and the map size can be anything up to 10 sqmi. The game has over 50 units and it lets players use real military formations tactics with units. Furthermore, the game also contains a map editor which allows players to create custom scenarios. A multiplayer mode was implemented, but can only be accessed by playing either LAN or by directly connecting via IP to another player.
