Men of War is an RTS video game that takes place during the height of WWII.

Men of War is a popular and critically acclaimed real-time strategy game that was released in 2009. It was developed by Best Way, published by 1C Company and 1C-SoftClub and release during a time when more fantastic settings were the standard for RTS games. This is a trial version of the game that lets you play through one of the missions to determine if you’d enjoy the full game.

Men of War features a rich World War II setting that spans multiple campaigns and 19 missions. You can play as the Allied, Soviet or German armies, and those three stories evolve in unique ways. All of the military equipment is based on historical documents and realized in an authentic manner. Environments and people are accurately recreated, and the graphics engine was cutting-edge at the time.

In addition to the single-player content, you can play against other people on a LAN or via the Internet. Multiplayer can be played like single-player but with multiple human players controlling some or all sides. There are also faster, multiplayer-oriented modes available, including Capture the Flag and High-Value Cargo. Note that this game was affected by the GameSpy shutdown. Playing games via the Internet now requires DirectIP, GameRanger or a similar solution.

There was a dozen or so DLC packs released for this game, so keep them in mind if you want the complete game experience. Much of this post-release content was multiplayer-oriented, but there are single-player missions and campaigns, including Assault Squad, Condemned Heroes, Red Tide and even Vietnam, which changing the setting completely. Fortunately, a Men of War: Collector Pack that brings all of this content together is available and often at a much-reduced rate.
