Hearts of Iron 2
« on: May 27, 2005, 08:24:39 PM »
Picked this up the other day.

Besides Civilazation III, and a Oclub Diplomacy Game :D, Its really the only "Grand" Strategy Game Ive ever played.

Im reading the manual and playing at the same time. Its kind of hard to get used to, Anybody else playing this game?
There must also be a flyable computer available for Nefarious to do FSO. So he doesn't keep talking about it for eight and a half hours on Friday night!

I'm still trying to get into hearts of iron 1,  some of my friends swear by it.  My A.D.D needs more than 2d graphics

I like HOI2, but it will take me some time and plenty of different games for me to fully grasp it.

Been playing it since it's release off and on. Make sure your running the latest patches. There's also some great mods around.

Right now Im Germany, I started the 1938 Campaign,  Building an Army is a challenge, Im focusing on Infantry, and Parachuters, followed by 109E's :) Then followed by Panzer III's. After that its all those capital ships Bismarck,Tirpitz, Graf Zepplen, (Yes I plan on building it, Expected date June 1940)

Techonolgy is focused on Panzer IV's, 109G's and Fw190's, Type XXI UBoats.

As long as there isnt a war, I should be ok LOL!
