Men of War: Assault Squad

Game review

Not a bad game, features 90% of the content of MoW the original game.

Positives:
Same game play to the entire series (i came from SHOWW2, and got right into this one easily).
Way less micromanagement (although the ability to micromanage is still there so if desired single man sneak rambo missions are still possible).
Ammo sharing (again, fixes one annoyance in the previous games).
Massive and i mean massive modding potential (community maps are the sole reason i still play singleplayer).

Negatives:
Terrible stock maps (no variety, rather limited replay-ability, too few options for units, every mission in one faction features exact same setup, ect).
DLC is rather poor (MP dlc only splits the community for no reason, and adds maps that are pointless given the sheer abundance of modded maps, Singleplayer DLC is rather poor, custom maps are hundreds of times better made and more fun).
A few bugs (AI refusing to fire on their own, Tiger turret absurd traverse rate, pathfinding issues especially in MP like the map with goalposts tanks always end up stuck in, ect).

Honestly 8/10, could use major improvements at least in terms of missions (i wouldnt mind if they made a few more with actual variety and not just same mission on a different landscape). A few bugs exist, some more rage inducing then others. But overall id say its an improvement over the 1st game, so we lost a few units (most of them pointless anyways like the absurd amount of 75mm armed tommy cookers that all have same armor/performance but minor 3D changes), gained a few (wespe, heroes), got a few 3D upgrades (Murican lineup, tiger, ect), and had a few upgrades in terms of balance/performance. In comparison to MoW the 1st one its better, visually much better, and it just feels more natural to play, and ofc they added a much better MP mode, which is good. Great game, if only they didnt forget about single player and actually made a half decent campaign that wast just the same skirmish every time.

SirHinkel's skirmish Missions

Mod review

Great pack overall, much more variety in missions from stock game (lets face it, default game's same skirmish mission with the same exact units every map gets rather old).

Aside from a few lag issues mostly due to infantry spam its great.

id like a version of your mission swithout any modded units, but since i can mod myself, until its released ill have to run my own customized version of your missions.

GL to your future mods, and keep em as good as this one.
