    Best RTS ever

    If you'd like a departure from the typical "harvest resources as fast as possible and build a huge army" RTS game mechanic, then COH will make you very very happy. Holding control points and strategically selecting what units to attack with and how to attack with them is key. A tank rush is nearly an instant fail. You must support your tanks with other units more suited to different tasks. The cover system is also an important characteristic. A lone machine gun in a field won't last very long, but build some sandbags around that machine gun and you have a very effective anti-infantry unit. The strategy is far too deep so summarize, everyone who's ever played an RTS needs to give this game a try.

      The closest you'll get to playing with your army men again 0

      As a child I simply adored my plastic army men. As a grownup I still do but I need a more mature excuse to play with them. Since I'm not into war games or anything of that nature, I believe Company of Heroes for the PC is the closest I'll get to reliving my childhood war simulations for a number of reasons. From the outset it is obvious that Relic has paid serious attention to all aspects of CoH. Building have varying states of decay dependent on how they are damaged, vehicles can crash after be...
