* Continue Campaign - continue where you last left off play in a campaign
* Axis Campaign - play the full Axis Campaign, or choose missions from it that the player has unlocked
* Allies Campaign - play the full Allies Campaign, or choose missions from it that the player has unlocked
Note that the Allies' Campaign will only be available after you have completed the Axis Campaign for the first time - and individual Missions will only unlock once you have successfully completed the Missions before them in that Campaign.

Menu

Server Browser

The server browser is the gateway to the Multiplayer experience in the game. It will list all the available servers reported back to it by the Steam Master Server that match your filter settings. The tabs across the top allow you to choose a subset of servers:

Ranked

Ranked servers run "standard" versions of the game, where players can work on increasing their profile statistics while playing. This can cover all game types and modes as well as some custom settings and white listed mutators.

Unranked

Unranked servers are those where less standard versions of the game are being played, with the server admin having changed many of the game defaults; this can include things as major modifications to non white listed mutators. Each server should list the modifications, so you know what you are getting!

Favorites

Lists servers players have added to their favorites list.

Friends

Lists servers that contain users on the players steam friends list.

LAN

Lists servers on the Local Area Network that players are connected to.

Recently Played

Lists the servers players have most recently played on.

Filters

Players can also apply filters to cut down the list to the game mode(Territory, Countdown, Firefight, Multiplayer Campaign), realism level (Action, Classic, Realism or Custom) and game type (Infantry, Tank and Combined Arms). The filter list also includes checks for empty and full servers as well as anti cheat settings.

Singleplayer

Taking this option allows the player to chose one of the following:

  • Continue Campaign - continue where you last left off play in a campaign
  • Axis Campaign - play the full Axis Campaign, or choose missions from it that the player has unlocked
  • Allies Campaign - play the full Allies Campaign, or choose missions from it that the player has unlocked

Note that the Allies' Campaign will only be available after you have completed the Axis Campaign for the first time - and individual Missions will only unlock once you have successfully completed the Missions before them in that Campaign.

Each Campaign is divided into Chapters, containing one or more Missions. This is to help set the scene for each Mission.

Clicking on a Mission will give you brief information about that Mission. Clicking on "Select" will allow you to select the Difficulty Level. On the easiest level, your squad will be reinforced regularly throughout gameplay - on the most difficult, you will get NO reinforcements, so cannot afford to take many casualties! Clicking on the desired Difficulty Level and clicking "Select" will start the highlighted Mission, playing the Mission Briefing video. If you have not played a Mission before, listen carefully to the Briefing. To skip the Briefing, hit "ESC". The difficulty levels are:

  • Raw Recruit
  • Frontline Soldier
  • Battle Hardened
  • Hero of Stalingrad

The first two difficulties are played in Action mode while the later are played in Realism.

Your Mission will either require you to attack a series of Objectives, or to defend them.
