Headquarters: World War II

Headquarters: World War II is a fast paced turn-based strategy covering the Battle of Normandy in the three plot-driven campaigns and a number of skirmishes. Choose your side, form your force, assign heroes, level up your units, and use Headquarters skills to overcome the enemy.

The game’s combat system is based on an easy to learn – hard to master approach . Deceptively easy at a first glance, it offers lots of possibilities:

Units have front/side/back/top armor and their positioning matters a lot

Fences and other obstacles offer a directional cover that depends on the angle of attack

Different terrain types offer various bonuses and affect Line of Sight

Destroyed vehicles and other large objects affect the battlefield and provide cover

High Ground mechanics allow multiple levels of terrain elevation that affect Line of Sight and combat effectiveness

Destructible buildings with different stages of demolition create unique challenges

All units and scenery are created with the finest attention to detail using Unreal Engine 4 to achieve a very realistic visual style:

Realistic unit models with proper physics in place

Visceral elements of devastation – burning tank hulks, ruined houses, shell craters, smoke, death, and destruction. You will witness this and many other horrors of the war

Varied surroundings – your troops will come across war-torn battlefields as well as peaceful villages with cattle and fields of grain. Mind your tanks – this quaint beauty is quite fragile

See all sides of the story by completing 3 campaigns with 9 operations in each.

The game features United States, United Kingdom, and German campaigns all set in the Normandy landings period of the war.

Between the battles, you can upgrade or change your units, level them up, and assign heroes to them, granting unique abilities
