Men of War: Assault Squad features a completely new
cooperative skirmish game mode with access to five
different nations (Russia, Germany, USA,
Commonwealth and, for the first time ever in the
Men of War series, Japan) as well as increased
realism and accessibility. Players can get behind
the controls of a tank to smash through obstacles,
crush soldiers under their tracks and fire
high-explosive shells at enemy emplacements, they
can even take control of individual soldiers as
they fight. As in previous games in the series, Men
of War: Assault Squad includes the unique "direct
control" feature which enables players to be in
command of any unit using the WASD controls, rather
than pointing and clicking.
