Unity of Command
Unity of Command: Stalingrad Campaign

Unity of Command is an operational-level wargame that spans the entire 1942/43 Stalingrad Campaign on the Eastern Front. Playable from both Axis and Soviet side, it recreates enormous battles of maneuver in a turn-based strategy setting. Take command in a war where logistics and poor weather are often the decider; and defeat and victory are sometimes just a mile, or a day, apart.

  • Historically accurate units (Axis divisions, Soviet corps)
  • 17 scenarios, at a scale of 20 km per hex, 4 days per turn
  • Integrated “History Mode” for after-action replays
  • Multiplayer: play against another person over the net (see below)

Developed and published by 2x2 Games. First released in November 2011; on Steam since 17 October 2012. Windows, Mac and Linux.

Multiplayer

Unity of Command can be played against another person over the internet, in the “Multiplayer” section of the main menu. Games are hosted on our server, so both players need only a copy of the game (version 1.04 or later) and an internet connection; games are played by turns and can be picked up again days later. The multiplayer server stays up.

From the press

Unity of Command is the rare turn-based wargame that anyone can learn and play in a few minutes.

Rob Zacny, PCGamesN

One of the most emotive and compelling strategy games out there.

Jim Rossignol, Rock Paper Shotgun

Doesn’t overdo unit counts and under-engineer AI, unlike most East Front wargames. Wargame of the Year material.
