Gamer Magazine Review Gives Strategic Command 90%
and Editors Choice Award!
"In
short, although Strategic Command is about as clean
and
elegant and easy-to-learn as a wargame can be, it's got
so many fiendishly creative wild cards lurking
just out-of-sight
that its replay value is endless. Even my 16-year-old,
who normally couldn't care less about Dad's wargames,
has gotten
hooked into a cut-throat series of hot-seat games with
me, and that alone should give you some idea of
how much fun
and drama is packed into this product. Be you a newbie
or crusty grognard, you'll probably be drawn in
as intensely
as we were." -William

Gives Strategic Command a 88% Excellent Rating
"Strategic
Command boasts a strong artificial intelligence.
I've been
playing these types of games since Avalon Hill's The Third
Reich (the board game, NOT the computer game), and
I've
won my share of battles. Strategic Command: European Theater,
on the other hand, handed me my ass on the first
run through...Strategic
Command: European Theater is, by all counts, a great game.
The combination of turn-based tactics and limitless
strategic
operations places it as one of the finest strategic wargames
of all time." -Mark H. Walker
The
Wargamer Review
Warning:
Strategic Command is very addictive. Hours seem to
pass
like minutes when playing this game. Your loved ones comment
on your zombie-like state and how you tend to shout
out
stuff like "I've got jets now" or "Moscow is mine"! I think
I even answered the phone with " I can't talk now, the
Nazis are trying to invade Britain." -Allan

Gamer Online Gives Strategic Command 9 out of 10
"Strategic
Command's strengths lie in its approach to total war and
creation of forces. Simplicity at one level allows the
player
to explore intricacies at other levels...Players' imaginations
can run riot not only with combat and production options
but also with diplomatic choices. For example, what
would the ramifications be of an Italian declaration of
war on Vichy France? Would Germany have been better off
to attack Russia before France? Players can think big here." -Jim

"Overall
Strategic Command: European Theater proved to be
a game
worthy of recognition. While the Wargame genre is not for
me, I'm positive that to those that enjoy large
scale war
campaigns will see this game as a classic, and this is
a wonderful game capable of introducing you to
the world of
wargames!"

Magazine (Finland) Gives SC a 90%
(October 2002 Issue- page 113)
"Strategy
game makers have been avoiding grand scale games
for a while,
but with the arrival of Strategic Command the wait is over.
The game makes it possible for Virtual Fuehrers to
act out
their desires in an easy and addictive way. Even though
Strategic Command's easiness to use would make fifteen
minute
gaming sessions possible, in reality there won't be any...
The beauty of the game lies in the fact that it is
easy
to get involved with, but it won't let go of the player.
Usually one returns to reality by the sound of the
morning
paper arriving." -Henrik

"As
mentioned above, the gameplay in Strategic Command is
a wonder to behold. It’s a breeze to learn
and all of the game’s information is at your fingertips...
Strategic Command: European Theater is a fabulous introductory
game into the wargaming genre. It’s easy to learn,
but there are tons of strategies to use on your opponents
and only multiply against a human player." -John Helebrant
Active
Reviews Awards Strategic Command 4 Stars
"This
game is probably the closest thing to a realistic combat
strategy
game that I have seen. The decisions you have to make can
end in glorious victory or send 100,000 men to their
grave.
Strategies like the blitzkrieg of the Germans, or the Strategic
bombing of the British and Americans, must be weighed
heavily.
One slip up could send you whole campaign down the drain." -Edward

Canada's Strategic Command Review
"SCET
has a number of features that make it a solid title
and
especially
good for those new to/or interested in the wargaming genre.
The ability to try out hypothetical strategies is
perhaps
the major strength of this game...From
a technical standpoint, SCET was very stable and I never
experienced any glitches with the game. The interface is
also well designed and provides a transparent window to
the gaming experience. 2D graphics and sound are well done
giving the game both a very polished and professional look." -Andy
