The Great War 1918

Mod review

A WW1 mod, that's interesting enough no? But this is much more than that!
What the team has made:

-proper designed, factions and otherwise, unlike regular CoH which has some design flaws which can be frustrating.
-with my limited WW1 knowledge I found the docterines to portray 1918 well, from the famous stormtroopers to the infamous Dicke Bertha.
-the ingame art, the unit icons, the textures, the models are all very well done. The team even made their own buildings.
-good balance (it has a few issues, but this is their first release)
-only the basic infantry can really be spammed.
-gas warfare offers interesting gameplay if you use it well.

I can only say thank you to the team for portraying such an interesting setting and designing and making such a great game. This game is perfect for competive play, it only needs people to play it competively as of now.

The mod does seem less popular than it should. So if you would like to play multiplayer join the Steam group:

Company of Heroes: The Great War 1918 TGW

The only thing I can say that I do not like about the mod are the field guns, which do not feel like real field guns at the moment but more like anti-tank guns. Other than that this game is perfect to me so it deserves a 10.
