About Encirclement: WW2
Encirclement: WW2 is a bite-sized Grand Strategy/RTS hybrid with a seamless transition between the two. Play small scenarios or use the entire world as a huge RTS battlefield with every bullet and soldier fully simulated. The game is designed to be an approachable sandbox even for those not familiar with grand strategy.
Start with automated nation management. Then slowly tweak the economy and war planning yourself. Or simply automate everything and watch the war rage on.
Customize each unit down to its equipment. Arm all your soldiers with flamethrowers or grenades or katanas!
- Several playable nations
- Regiment editor with dozens of historical weapons and vehicles
- Thousands of soldiers simulated across the world simultaneously
- Historical missions spanning the Western front, Eastern front, North Africa, Asia and the Pacific
- Online multiplayer
