Can anyone recommend a good one for PC?

Prefer European/Russian theatres.

Thanks

For Tactical Strategy look no further than the Combat mission series of games. Whilst the graphics arent top notch the gameplay is really good.

How about Brothers in Arms. You can pick up the first one (Road to Hill 30) for about a Tenner now. See it the other day in GAME for exactly that amount.

Excellent FPS, but with a Strategic twist.

Not your usual "Gun n Run" FPS, you have to work out your plan of attack first or you eat lead. [img]images/smilies/default/huh.gif[/img]

When I came back from the range last weekend my friend's son showed me this game called Blitzkrieg on the PC. Wish they had stuff like that when I was a kid.

As a strategy game, I've heard very good reports of Hearts of Iron II but have not yet played it.

Close Combat 5: Invasion Normandy is a good RTS.
