Thinking about purchasing have some questions

[Ziji]

The missions are NOT linear.

And your soldiers carry over in some missions, but not all.

Think of it like story arcs.

You've got some arcs that have the same characters and such, and others where there are completely new characters.

And considering that the campaigns are all over the place, it wouldn't make a lot of sense to have the same guys at each mission.

However, there is a modifcation called DCG (Dynamic Campaign Generator) that lets you start and keep your soldiers from the past missions and such, and even equipment you capture.

And they gain experience and such the more they are used and what not.

All in all, this game is great and I urge you to buy it.

Red Tide is a little pricy, but I really liked it, but to start I'd just go with the original MoW.

Just make sure you have a very good computer.

Thanks for everyones input, I just put my order in Steam this morning and its installing as we speak. Look forward to the dynamic campaign generator.

Enjoy Mow! It really is one of the best WW2 RTS games you will ever play.

And your a member of one of the better MoW forums if you need any help, IMO.
