Conflict of Heroes: Awakening the Bear! is a turn-based tactical strategy game with deep historical routs that includes an AI opponent as well as full multiplayer support with an integrated forum and game lobby.
The game was designed using historically accurate data. It teaches and rewards platoon and company-level combined arms tactics without overwhelming the player with rules.
Conflict of Heroes: Awakening the Bear! will transports you you to the Eastern Front of World War II right during the Operation Barbarossa, when the German forces invade the Soviet Union. The game features a historical roster of infantry, artillery, mechanized and support units for the Axis and Soviet forces for the time frame of Operation Barbarossa.
Included in the game are eleven new Frontier scenarios, five new Commanding Heights scenarios and a very flexible “Partisan Road” Point Buy scenario.
