There are a total of 21 missions of different types to complete from western France to Germany. You will also be able to play individual missions once they have been unlocked in Campaign mode. When you begin the campaign, you will be able to follow a tutorial to learn about the basics of the game for managing your armies and completing missions. Patton’s Evolution Patton will evolve as he successfully advances in the campaign. There are two different elements to manage strategically: Patton’s prestige and skill points, both of which affect his Third Army. Prestige points are, in effect, the currency for exchange in the game. They can be used to recruit new units, heal wounded soldiers, repair damaged vehicles, or to upgrade units. Patton’s skill points affect certain characteristics of the Third Army’s units. Therefore, the player can improve desired aspects of their units in a number of different ways. As missions are successfully completed, Patton’s prestige and skill points will increase in accordance with the type of victory achieved: minor, normal, major or heroic. Unit Evolution The most important element of a unit’s evolution is its experience. The most veteran units will be the most valuable during missions. Experience will improve the offensive power and the precision of their weapons. Units gain experience by eliminating enemies, performing actions, completing objectives, and even receiving damage and surviving. The improvement in their characteristics will be proportional to their experience. For every 100 experience points gained the unit will receive a rank star, to a maximum of 5. Four rank stars are represented by a silver star and five stars by a gold star. Upon completing a mission, the unit that gains the most experience, within a minimum, will receive a medal. Units that receive three medals will become heroes, meaning that all of their characteristics will improve considerably. Heroes with five rank stars are the most valuable units in the army. The experience of units is very valuable, so it is important to prevent such units from being destroyed by the enemy. When a unit becomes obsolete, like a light tank, for example, it can be upgraded to a more powerful model. Multiplayer Missions You can play a battle with another player, between American and German forces, taking turns using a single console. In multiplayer mode you will compete with another player (or against yourself) in a battle, taking turns using one console. Each player will choose a faction, American or German, along with the units to be used in the battle. During their turn each player will make the move(s) they wish and will then pass the console to the other player. The aim is to destroy all the opponent’s units.
