Seize Russia. Win the war.
The German Army needs YOU to command their forces into the most ambitious invasion plan ever imagined: invade Russia and lead the mighty Wehrmacht on towards Moscow.
The variety of maps and battle situations is what makes Frontline so different and engaging: you are confronted with blitzkriegs, trench wars and dog fights, but also unusual situation such as missions to capture an armoured convoy or recover important documents. You will also find yourself capturing strategic positions and destroying fortifications.
Your units will upgrade throughout the game, based on combat success and experience. This will prove to be an extremely powerful tool providing you with a personalized army that is created by your style of play.
12 battle scenarios: all inspired by historical missions and true-to-life war situations Land, naval and aerial combat: all units have strengths and weaknesses encouraging different uses, which adds an extra strategic layer to the game. There are over 100 of them!
Unlock and upgrade: units will develop unique abilities based on the style of play. New units become available as you progress through the campaign
Maps are created to reflect the real terrain the German army had to fight over and plays a dramatic part in the gameplay
A unique visual style: Frontline looks different from any other strategy game you've played and it looks great!

8 of 15This is a really good game with great graphics, then it has problems. The battle for Lenningrad does not allow you to use reinforcements or even pull up the pull-up. Since there is no manual or tutorial you have no way of knowing where the problem is or if it's supposed to do that?
I save 1 star ratings for apps that are broken. This one needs a much better tutorial and better balancing of German and Soviet forces.
There is such a demand for games like this and yet the developers stuck with the old worn out hex games instead of enhancing this. I am asking the developer to fix the problems, expand the game. This developer has several so-so games because they keep using the engine they use for the civil war games, Romans, Hannibal and others which are all me to games. This engine is better and smoother. The previous game based on d-day could also be updated and included. This could easily be a 5 star. PREVIOUS REVIEW This is a great game but could use a few more units. Also, there is at least 3 scenarios where you meet all three objectives but it says you missed one. Finally, I have played all three campaigns and we could use a fourth or the ability to play as the Allies. Too bad the developer has pretty much walked away from this engine but still worth a purchase. I knocked it down to 4 stars because the developer has abandoned it and it now has several glitches. Still enjoyable but they are foolish for not fixing and expanding it.
I played through the 12 Scenarios. It’s very much like Panzer General or Panzer Corps which I really enjoy. I didn’t encounter any significant bugs, which was nice... and there is a real ‘blitzkrieg’ element that makes the battles compelling. A solid 4 star game, except that I paid for this game and I’m annoyed to see in game purchase offers on my battle map. Save it for the credits or leave it out. I didn’t pay for in-game marketing!
OK game, but not as sophisticated as the panzer general series or other turn based games where, for instance specific units can last throughout the campaign, gaining experience and upgrades. There is also no defensive artillery support or fighter escort defense to speak of. It’s a pretty basic game, but still fun.
The AI is weak, even at the toughest setting.
It is a fun and addictive war game - it is very good to kill some time when commuting.
The game does not let you attack Moscow ! Even if you win all the battles there is no attacking Moscow.
