It's not that it's a bad game, it's just that it so, hmm, misses.  the biggest problem let down it that there are about five tactical maps, landing in China looks just like landing in Mexico ect...  Then there's the soldier loadouts, very limited choices.  The strategic game is even more limited.  I could go on, but I wont.
