Description

Desert Rats vs. Afrika Korps is a World War II tactical PC game, where you can take place in the African battle maneuvers, either by the side of the Axis, led by Rommel, or the Allies, led by Montgomery. Apart from being a well-written RTS, the game also has some RPG'ish features, such as distinctive story-lines for both sides, experience-gathering abilities for the units, or bonus points which can be exchanged for special units.
