Those resources - fuel, ammunition, and manpower - dictate the number and type of units you're able to build.
Developed by Relic Entertainment, the real-time strategy game retains most of the mechanics that fans of previous games will be familiar with: controllable and upgradeable units, destructible environments, and capture points that provide precious victory points and resources. The craze spawned what are now some of the industry's most profitable franchises (remember when Call of Duty was set exclusively in WWII?), and eventually led to a certified strategy hit, Company of Heroes.Ĭompany of Heroes 3 is the newest installment in the 17-year old series, this time set in the Mediterranean Theater. Maybe it was the success of blockbuster movies like Saving Private Ryan and The Thin Red Line, or maybe it was just the right amount of distance away from one of the worst conflicts in history, but you couldn't throw a rock in a video game store without hitting a new World War II-based title. Something happened in the late 90s into the 2000s.
