http://www.entertainment-focus.com/games/trailers - This fall, Deep Silver and X1 Software send fans of tactical gameplay and shooters back to 1944 in "Iron Front -- Liberation 1944". The location? Southern Poland during the Soviet Offensive in the summer of that year, when the infantry and tankunits of the Red Army and the Wehrmacht engaged in fierce combat. "Iron Front -- Liberation 1944" is based on the engine of ARMA II Operation Arrowhead by Bohemia Interactive.
The player takes on the role of a Russian or German infantryman, using teamwork, tactical skill and authentic war machines to battle for victory. The German campaign focuses on slowing the advance of the Soviet troops, while the Soviet campaign is all about breaking through the enemy's resistance. However, the player does not have to do all this on foot: Using their computers, tacticians will control tanks, including the famous German battle tank Panzerkampfwagen VI or "Königstiger"and the Russian Stalin tank JS2, or fighter planes such as the Focke Wulf190 and dive bombers like the Stuka or the Petlyakov PE-2.
Online is where the battle really heatsup in "Iron Front -- Liberation 1944": Players can either complete missions cooperatively or compete with each other in special multiplayer modes such as "Capture the Flag" or "Attack and Defense"."Iron Front -- Liberation 1944" also includes an extensive mission editor, enabling players to intuitively create their own missions and share them with their friends online, thus guaranteeing that there will never be a shortage of new missions.
"Iron Front -- Liberation 1944"is due to be released exclusively for the PC in the fourth quarter of 2011.
This game looks very promising to be honest. I don't really care for the complaints about the engine, It was an engine which took war to an massive scale in terms of the map with ARMA II, and this game brings about that same element to a pretty under utilized area of the war for game making. Hope this is as good as it looks.

The first Red Orchestra was pretty unprecedented. Surely, the second one may have some faults in comparison to the first, but you have to give much credit to the series for shedding light on a much uncredited theater of war in World War II, and doing so in a very fashionable, realistic, and tactical way. Rather than debating which game will be better, we should really be rejoicing in that there is finally more coverage of this theater and more options in which to experience it.

It's based on ArmA2 engine so it will be lame unfortunately.

The original Lib Mod for OFP was practically a new game - very impressively different game balance and many new features.
