This is a fantastic game which I'd recommend to everyone on this forum. I'll just quickly go over the pros and cons real quick
Pros:
Virtually completely geographically correct for 1938. Czechoslovakia, Austria, Ireland, Estonia, you name the country in Europe at the time and it's there, which is more than I could say for easytechs conquest games where they couldn't even add Ireland.
The countries that the AI controls can join different sides. This sounds OP and weird but let me explain. A country which is initially neutral, such as Portugal, can join in on any side they want whenever they want, let it be Axis, Comintern or allies. This makes scenarios a lot more interesting than having every single country be fixed onto a certain side.
Excellant combat system.
I also enjoy the fact that there is the Comintern, the Allies and the Axis, and not just Axis and Allies.
Cons:
The fact that you can't join another side than what you are currently on unlike the other countries. For example, I was playing as Latvia (Allied country) and Estonia joined the Axis. In other words, I was screwed. I think that you should be able to switch to another alliance in the first round if you want to (Allthough not later, because that could be very unfair)
You can only be ten countries in the beginning of the game, which don't include Britain and Germany. In order to play as these countries, you have to either buy the pack which has them in it or complete every single mission for every single country in pack one.
I still ill highly recommend this game however.
