Battlefields are tiled hexagons arranged on a small landscape. With the cursor over one of your tanks and other military fleet, opens a menu where you can do various military tasks to the item, such as equipping it with weapons. opens a menu where you can set up the game in a variety of ways. When you have felt you have done enough in your turn, hit START and choose "End Turn" to end your turn.
Units can be upgraded to newer, more powerful versions if they gain enough experience.
Campaign mode allows players to play most of the battles fought by Germany, from Poland to Fall of Berlin. However, similar to SSI's Panzer General series, players can find themselves in hypotetichal scenarios such as invasion of Britain or United States if they perform very well during the campaign missions.

Even though game's cover has other world leaders during the WW2, other sides are only playable during the scenario mode and not avaiable for the campaign.
