Also if you are in real time wargaming you could try World War I from 1C Company. It uses the old Blitzkrieg engine and could provide some fun - but don't expect too much

BOA is not something that I would want to spend my time playing it as it looks too basic and WAY outdated for my taste - it looks like the games I have played in 1990s ....

Carnium wrote:I did not mean only the graphic but the whole engine that GOA is using. Its is outdated and for me it does not provide enough information about units, technology and politics so there is no real "feel" that you are really playing a true WW1 simulation.
There is a HUGE lack of WW1 games and that makes GOA interesting to many that enjoy this period.
Sad truth is that there are WAY too many WW2 games which we can compare and almost no WW1 games.
WW1 FPS anyone![]()
