If it’s not a game type you actively seek, Sudden Strike 4 is not going to hold your hand while you figure it out. Sudden Strike 4 is a real time strategy game, and either that excites you or it doesn’t. The selections aren’t permanent, nor is the General selection, allowing players to pick the right tools and leaders for the job. Completing story missions provides points that you can allocate to unlock these advantages, allowing you to choose a variety of less expensive powers, or put all of them into more powerful skills. Each General has a bit of history, as well as differing powers and upgrade trees that can provide additional repairs, equip soldiers with landmines and grenades, or grant additional accuracy for their artillery pieces, as just a few examples.

For the first time in the series, in addition to multiple campaigns, there are also three real world Generals (including the likes of George Patton and Bernard Montgomery) for each faction.
