Our take on Rush for Berlin Gold
The defining structure is a race to Berlin across 1944–1945, paired with a separate German campaign where mass-produced experimental weapons create an alternate version of the war.
What is Rush for Berlin Gold?
Set during the European battles of 1944–1945, this real-time strategy game places American, British, French and Soviet forces in a race for Berlin.
The campaign presents increasingly difficult resistance as the armies approach the German capital. A separate German campaign uses an alternate-history premise in which experimental German weapons enter mass production. More than 100 unit types are included, with officers acting as special units. Vehicles use a detailed damage model, while soldiers can enter vehicles and buildings. Production facilities supply equipment, including camouflage tanks. Day-night changes, weather and an AI that responds aggressively to player actions affect battles.
