I’d still check out the Atari “Axis & Allies,” unless you have NO interest in RTS (as stated, like Command & Conquer). It trades strategy for faced pace action, and can be fun with friends on a LAN. I got a chance to play for a while, and it can be entertaining, for a short time…
Others to try would be Sudden Strike, another RTS but not as goofy, and my all time favorite RTS involving WW2 material: Close Combat. A damn good game…
I downloaded a copy of Iron Blitz from a website I can’t remember - I’ll try and track it down. It was a relatively small download, runs fairly well (gets slower and slower as you go on, even when turning down some of the settings), and is FREE!!!
PC version SO FRIGGEN SLOW!1

Ive been looking for the axis and allies pc version for some time now. Never found it, but my friend showed me a place to download it, because its considered abondware now. Anyways, it runs so friggen slow, it aint funny. I can play for 1 or 2 turns. Then it just goes painfully, slow, like the game will freezeup, every second or whne ever i try to make a move. This creates a very painful and horrid experence.
IVe turned everything off, sound, music, turned on quick roll. But no dice :S

someone just recommended I do this for Iron Blitz and it made an improvement.
if you are running xp, or even not I guess try;
right clicking on the AA icon. choose compatibility mode and set for Win 95, 98, etc. play around. 98 worked for me.

I noticed tunring off the Newspaper helped me too. Thats really unnessesary and it gets annoying. Also, turning on fast computer cuts down the RAM needed.
