These games are
amazing. i would type some long thing but in not in the mood.
These games are tactical, where you command units of tanks, infantry, and more in a theatre of war, after picking a country to fight for. This game and the others in the series are available on steam.
pros:
- a ton of detail
- damage modeling for practically everything
- good AI
- good voice acting
- nice graphics
cons:
none I can think of, except for high requirements.
screenshots (I didn't have show cursor checked in fraps):

two assaulting Axis tanks

a Grant and Sherman tank along with some infantry

a 40 MM Bofors anti ground & air gun

two M3 halftracks

infantry standing in a trench; those faint lines are placement grid lines

an Axis crewman jumping out of a burning tank(this is not a Sherman; I had a Sherman selected when i took this)

assaulting Axis infantry and some tanks
war is hell
crew next to their destroyed tank (one of them is dead, and this is not an M3; I had a damaged M3 selected when i took this)

immobilized M3 firing the 30 MM gun

a destroyed Axis tank and armored car
that icon with a strafing fighter in the corner means I can call in air support
