WITE2 - worth the cost?

[zap]

Thanks for the feedback guys.  I do own WITE 1 and am currently playing as Russia, it is Dec 5 1941 and the Germans have not captured Smolensk and are not close to Leningrad, this on challenging mode so I guess the next step is hard.  The random weather of WITE 2 is what intrigues me.  As for my current game situation I can only guess that movement FOW is what is confusing the AI; I will probably play out my winter counter attacks and then end the game and start over.

The AI is so much better in WitE2.  I think if you are playing the AI you'd want it for that reason alone.

I have it on my wish list for Nov/Dec when the price is hopefully less, just can't swing $100 for a game.  Have you tried playing with movement FoW enabled for the AI, I think that is the culprit of the "stupid" AI.

I used my coupon at the Blitz for the number of years being a member there. Mine was 50% off. however, I don't own WitE1. More for supporting Matrix Games then playing it. Hope you can use coupon for a good reduction of price.
