Air support is useless until flak batteries are destroyed. Enemy positions need to be scouted before you advance. This conveys a tremendous sense of pace and, almost unconsciously, forces you to use sound battlefield tactics. Battle Academy 2 proceeds in traditional, turn-based fashion but, whenever one of your units strays into an opponent’s line-of-sight, they get to take a potshot at you. It’s not often that wargames let you pitch Russian saboteurs against waves of Tiger tanks, but this one does.Ĭover and concealment play a fundamental role in gameplay. This, more than anything, contributes to the character of the game.
There are tons of them, and they’re nicely modeled and well simulated, with a raft of hidden statistics that affect how they fight. However, this rather carefree treatment of history doesn’t extend to the units under your command. It’s a good design decision as, freed from historical constraints, the developers have been able to channel their efforts into making maps that are great fun to play. Instead, game objectives tend to be generic: take this village, protect that convoy, destroy those defences. Those events provide the backdrop for four lengthy single-player campaigns, but they’re there for atmosphere rather than verisimilitude.
#ACE ACADEMY GAME HENTAI SERIES#
The latest title in the series comes with a fresh paint job, better tactical options and a brilliant skirmish mode but, not-so-deep-down, it’s still the same game that we fell in love with back in 2012.Īs the subtitle suggests, Battle Academy 2 concentrates on the clash between Russian and German forces during World War II.
That’s no surprise the first Battle Academy was fantastic, and the sequel is more of the same.
