Company of Heroes Complete Pack Contents

Complete Pack is the definitive edition of the game and contains the base game and its legacy variant. It also includes two standalone expansion packs, Opposing Fronts and Tales of Valor, to further enhance the gaming experience.

The expansion packs feature new factions, units, campaigns, multiplayer maps and modes, and more. They also introduce new mechanics, such as the Dynamic Weather Effects that controls the weather and the day and night cycle, and the Direct Fire Control that allows you to manually specify the moment you want your units to shoot in the chosen direction.

Story

Company of Heroes takes you through the most important American operations of the Second World War. Starting with the famous D-Day, through the Battle of Cherbourg, to Operation Cobra, you will be able to command your soldiers and experience first-hand the thrills of a real war. Expansion packs add new campaigns to the base game, allowing you to experience the war from entirely different perspectives as well, namely British 2nd Army and German Panzer Elite.

Gameplay and Game Modes

The game is a real-time strategy and as such it allows players to build their base and collect resources in order to deploy more units on the battlefield and send them to battle. Each available faction has different units available and offers different strategies to be utilized, with each faction being further split into three separate army types, of which you can choose only one. Additionally, units also can have some special abilities that may be either available from the beginning or will require unlocking during the match by researching. These include the infantry’s ability to throw grenades or explosives, or to mount a machine gun on a tank.

The game map is split into several areas you can capture. Captured areas can provide resources in form of fuel and ammunition needed to recruit more advanced units. The environment can be used to your advantage – you can mine the narrow passage or send your soldiers into the buildings for additional cover from enemy fire. Company of Heroes Complete Pack can be played alone in single-player campaigns and custom scenarios against computer-controlled enemies, as well as in online multiplayer, competing against other players or teams in 1-8 battles.

Reception

Company of Heroes received very positive reviews. Reviewers considered it one of the best, if not the best, strategy games of 2006, setting the bar quite high for any future RTS games. They especially liked the amount of micromanagement needed to be done during the game without feeling overwhelmed, while still giving a lot of freedom in developing custom strategies, as well as the addictive gameplay that holds players excited for an extended amount of time.
