Newcomers to the genre or the series should pick up the core Company of Heroes 2 at first, to get themselves familiarized with the series and its ideas, and then make the jump to The Western Front Armies in order to experience more varied matches.

The expansion game is multiplayer oriented and is now a lot more dynamic offering many new strategies and units to use. The pace feels steady and is no longer hampered by long range tanks that would stall games. This expansion puts a much needed breathe of fresh life into the existing game. The new armies for both sides do a good job complimenting the preexisting Soviet and German armies. The balance does have some issues, and is sure to be tinkered with by the Relic developers. What is obvious in the characteristics of the new armies, is that you can see a path in which Relic could add an additional expansion bringing back famed armies from it's previous series, the Brits and Panzer Elite.On whole, the game is worth the $20. It's still top in the top class for strategy games but still remains in the shadows of Blizzard's Starcraft II for strategy game dominance. With this expansion and the further development that is looking to come, Company of Heroes is looking like it might regain it's reins as a high standing competitive strategy game.

It's an interesting DLC, and the new base building will undoubtedly shift the balances of multiplayer. Still, all thing considered, a single player expansion to beef up the package would've been much appreciated.

The factions are a breath of fresh air, different and unique enough to the extent that I dont see myself playing the Soviet or German forces for a while.Also shocking is how balanced the factions are, which is unprecedented. Granted there will likely be a few tweaks on a few units soon enough, but all things considered, it's quite an excellent feat. Combined with the patches that have made the game even more enjoyable, it's difficult to fault Relic here. They've really done the right thing by their fans, which is lovely.

While the inclusion of paratroopers and para-dropped items—that can be deployed anywhere on the map—are the most obvious new feature via specific US Commanders, there’s also a balanced emphasis on regular infantry and armour, too.

The fact that this is a standalone expansion really sweetens the deal. If you'd like to pick up just one of the new factions, that'll only run you £10, and with that you can start playing one of the best World War 2 strategy games ever made... alongside its near-perfect predecessor, of course.

This is what Company of heroes 2 should have been like all along. At the price of 20€ for us Europeans it is nothing less then a steal. ItThis is what Company of heroes 2 should have been like all along. At the price of 20€ for us Europeans it is nothing less then a steal. It completely transforms the game into something with a little more edge. The units, the graphics and even the physics seem to have gotten an overhaul, with the welcome addition of two new armies and the introduction of the American forces.Another welcome addition is the new lobby system that now allows for users to make their own custom matches without all the hassle of only being able to invite friends via steam.On top of the lobby system, is now the new "spoils of war" loot system, that will randomly drop you a "supply crate" after a game has ended, rewarding you with a random new upgrade weather its a new commander, skin or bulletin of various "rareness". A brilliant little feature. All in all, if you liked the original Company of heroes or the sequal, the Western Front Armies is nothing short of a must buy.

Company of Heroes 2: The Western Front Armies is a great deal for newcomers, who can buy, for 20 euros, a deep RTS online. Existing players will have a solid DLC, but a worse deal.
