The Great War

Mod review

I have given this mod a 10. There are a couple of bugs but it is pretty much what I am after for a strategy game.

It is/has been stable for my entire time playing it, only crashing occasionally on minimise, which I believe is a default NTW bug.

The unit range is extensive and relatively accurate (allowing for balance etc).
The team have made GREAT use of the engine and the features it has to offer, with a little polish, If i didn't know it was a mod I would think it was a game designed to be like that.

They have redone all the technology, implemented planes, tanks, machine guns, gas, early vs late war doctrines, playable minor nations, emerging nations (soviet union and other minor nations which come about from liberation).

You will encounter a couple of bugs here and there and maybe some balance issues but these will probably be addressed and despite those it is still thoroughly enjoyable.

I'll be honest, I bought NTW for this mod and have not regretted it, were it a stand alone game (with the minor bugs removed) I would not hesitate to buy it.
