About this game

Enlist in an intense brand of Axis vs. Allied teamplay set in the WWII European Theatre of Operations. Players assume the role of light/assault/heavy infantry, sniper or machine-gunner class, each with a unique arsenal of historical weaponry at their disposal. Missions are based on key historical operations. And, as war rages, players must work together with their squad to accomplish a variety of mission-specific objectives.

Distinct infantry classes provide specialized squad roles.
Period weapons, sounds, maps, and visuals create a WWII atmosphere.

Cons

Lethal combat and unfamiliar objectives create a steep learning curve.
GoldSrc graphics, animation, and interface look dated by modern standards.
Match outcomes depend heavily on teammate coordination.
Primarily multiplayer structure includes little single-player or offline content.
