This game allows you to relive one of the most important conflicts we have ever had in recent history. You can take control of one of the axis powers, allied powers, or some nation that had no involvement whatsoever and you have control on what happens. you can go an axis U.S.A, a communist germany, or a democratic russia. you have the choice on whether to fight the historical fight or to go nuts with some insane senario. that is what makes this game so much fun.
