About Wargame: European Escalation

Wargame: European Escalation is a real-time strategy game developed and published by Eugen Systems. Steam release: 22 February 2012.

Set in Europe between 1975 and 1985, it imagines the Cold War turning hot. Two sides and eight nations field over 350 modelled vehicles and units – tanks, helicopters, infantry, artillery and anti-air – on large maps where line of sight, ammunition, fuel and morale all matter. The zoom system lets you go from a strategic overview down to a single tank. A campaign is joined by online battles and co-op.

  • Two sides, eight nations – build your own decks.
  • Realistic logistics – fuel, ammo and supply.

Men of War II offers a similarly detailed approach to vehicles, ammunition and line of sight, with large-scale multiplayer fronts. Men of War: Red Tide keeps that hardcore unit control but focuses on Soviet naval infantry in a demanding single-player campaign.
