A very niche Gaming Genre, HOI2 is by and far the best Armchair General WWII game I've ever played. (You move divisions of units, research technology and deal with Worldwide diplomacy.) Every country in the year 1939 is playable from all the big name ones, down to tiny Luxembourg. Left alone World War II usually unfolds on it's own, however with good strategy and a good grasp of history you can change the outcome of the war. You can see what would happen if Hitler had been smarter about Operation Barbarossa, you can have Nationalist Spain join the Axis, or you can have Japan invade the Mainland U.S.. In all of these scenarios the choices are yours, just see if you can live to see the end of the scenario. :P
I love it! I play with Pogessor mod.
