STATEMENTS

Martin van Balkom, Battlefront.com president:
Many people have been waiting for this day for a long time. Formerly known under the working title WW2RTS this game has seen a long and let’s say “eventful” development cycle during which it has been voted several times as one of the top 10 most anticipated titles. With the joint venture between 1C and our team at Battlefront the expectations have even grown, and after a few busy months of concentrated efforts since last year the game that so many fans have been dreaming about is almost ready for prime time. We’re excited and thrilled about the end product which is building a bridge between fun and fast real-time action while at the same time presenting the player with a credible simulation of World War Two combat from all the European fronts. The stage has been set for the Theatre of War!

Nikolay Baryshnikov, International Sales Director, 1C Company:
We are happy that the development stage of Theatre of War has finally reached its finish line. We were working on it for a long period of time and tried to take into account as many opinions and requests of the community as possible. We wanted to make a game we would be proud of. By all means the final verdict will be delivered by customers but I think that together with Battlefront we made Theatre of War a game capable of setting new standards for the genre.

March 9th, 2007
WorthPlaying Game Preview added

Game previews are coming in fast and furious and the newest one is from the gaming site WorthPlaying.com. People have often asked about the types of battles included in the campaign and one of the things this new preview pointed out was the following, "The scenarios offered in both Battle and Campaign modes are well balanced and are not overly focused on tanks. There are exceptions to this, with at least one scenario made exclusively for tank enthusiasts. But in general, the mix between armor and infantry seems about right, and mission success will often depend on the proper tactical use of these forces."

Look through our Previews, Reviews and Walkthroughs page located here.

New Game Previews up from TweakTown, The Wargamer and Associated Content

Three more Theatre of War previews went up recently and we have links to all of them on our our Previews and Reviews page. We are extremely pleased with how positive all the previews have been so far and are pleased that the long wait for this game is almost at an end.

March 2nd, 2007
New Game Previews and Walkthrough posted

As we get closer to the release date for Theatre of War many websites, magazines and online portals will be posting game previews, reviews and special features. Today, we have the first batch to share with you.

The website and magazine, Armchair General, have recently posted a new game preview following some time they put in with a recent beta.

Reviewer Brian King had this to say, "The graphics in ToW are, in general, very good; the vehicle modeling though, is stellar.  This will make a lot of gamers very happy. The thrill of watching a wedge of Tigers seek out and destroy their quarry is shown in every grimy detail, with exhaust smoke billowing, trees getting pushed down, and gobs of mud being thrown from tracks.  Of lesser importance to a tanker like me are the infantry, which I’m happy to report are also very well done graphically.  Finally, the terrain and buildings are highly detailed and in some cases photorealistic (the rustling dandelion fields are particularly attractive)."

Read the full Armchair General Preview right here

Steve Butts of the giant IGN web portal also got some hands on time and mentioned this fact, ""...Battlefront and 1C have decided to stick with historically appropriate engagement ranges, meaning that your forces will start firing on each other far sooner than you'd find in a more conventional World War 2 RTS like Blitzkrieg or Desert Rats. Here the tanks and artillery pieces can literally send shells across the entire battlefield."

View the IGN Hands On Preview here

In addition to Previews, we are happy to announce a multi-part Game Walkthrough has begun. This Walkthrough goes through the Theatre of War tutorial and training scenarios and is currently hosted on Tweaktown.

This first article covers some basic game mechanics such as how to select and move units, while the following three articles will dig deeper into tactical problems and how to solve them using realistic WW2 tactics (and how to execute them in the game).
