Soldiers: Heroes of World War II

Soldiers: Heroes of World War II is the first in a series of real-time tactics video games set in World War II, developed by or under the supervision of Ukrainian company Bestway. While the most widely distributed edition by Codemasters bears the name Soldiers: Heroes of World War II, its original English language title is Outfront, and its original Russian title is В тылу врага. The player could take control of American, British, Russian, or German forces to play out battles that are set in World War II. The game is primarily a strategy game, but the player can take control of his or her forces and direct them with the keyboard and mouse for additional depth of control. In foreign markets, the series has been plagued by many publisher and name changes, making its chronology difficult to follow. Game scenario writers include Alexander Zorich.
