Desert Rats vs Afrika Korps (Encore)

Telling the story of the North African campaigns of World War II from both Axis' and Allies' side, Desert Rats vs. Afrika Korps is Real-Time Tactical game in full 3D boosting single- and multiplayer mode. Uniquely, the game combines narrative-based missions with the real-time strategy genre. Across two campaigns and twenty missions inspired from historical facts, players follow the destiny of a German and an English hero, who were once friends and who are now constrained to fight each other in this 'war without hate'. Missions range from reconnaissance operations in the desert and urban flush-out missions to large-scale sieges of desert fortresses. Each mission starts with a briefing and a recap of the historical background to the ensuing battle. More than 30 units can be allocated to each side, selected in the army management system. Desert Rats is characterised by a high level of combat realism and varied combat tactics. A pause feature allows players to think over tactics if necessary.
