| The demo features the entire opening stage of the Russian campaign,
which sees a small unit from the Red Army taking on the might of the
Germans. This initial mission helps players to get to grips with the
controls before culminating in a tightly fought battle between a
Russian tank and a convoy of German vehicles.
There's also an opportunity to try out Men of War's "direct control"
feature during the demo. This enables you to manoeuvre units using the
directional keys, rather than pointing and clicking. You can get behind
the controls of a tank to smash through obstacles, crush soldiers under
your tracks and fire armour-piercing shells at enemy placements.
Men of War takes place across the globe during the height of World War
II and features four different armies - Russia, America, Germany and
the other Allies - each with their own unique units, vehicles and
missions. From the Russian missions starring two student comrades
innocent to the horrors of war, players are soon catapulted into
massive battles with dozens of units under their command.
