Men of War: Assault Squad 2

Are every country's missions the same?
I played all the USA missions then moved on to Germany and started to realize that all the missions are just rehashed versions of the USA ones. Map might have slight differences but it's all basically the same thing. Just look at Seelow Heights vs. Phillipines.

Is this how it is for all of them? Are there any nations let with unique missions?

yes - most people get more hours out of playing multiplayer as opposed to skirmish. I'd strongly suggest you move that way otherwise you will find the default missions are redundant. However, you can also as suggested download many mods in the workshop for additional SP missions.

I think the Developers plan was that skirmishes are there to prepare you for multiplay which is the main directive of this game. I also think those skirmishes are alike so you can get used to each factions units under similar circumstances, but maybe the developers can expand better on this subject.

Yes, the missions are the same, I was very disappointed when I noticed it. I should have bought AS1 instead of this.

Is this problem present in the Iron Fist DLC? It says "5 new missions" but are these really 5 missions or only 1 mission with different factions?

AS1 is the same but cheaper. About 3 of each maps in AS2 for each Nation are from AS1 anyway but in AS2 can look much better in the graphics on high settings and other new features.

The DLC Iron Fist is 5 new missions which means 5 freshly designed & different maps
but with similar tank battle scenarios with different factions.
The same thing happens in war ; different locations, same kind of battles, attack, hold position, advance etc.................

If you want completely different missions play the Red Tide mod for AS2.
It is a long campaign with 22 completely different missions and story.

Thanks for answering my question about Iron Fist.

Yes you could reduce the war to a few types of general scenarios but the similarities between missions in this game are just ridiculous, specially when the variety of missions in all the other Men of War games was so diverse.

l already played those games in their original implementations, including MoW, Condemned Heroes and Vietnam that is the reason why I am complaining about the lack of diversity in AS2.

But yes I will take a look at the workshop so this game will not be a full waste after all.

Some Workshop mods are not updated to work with the current game version and might
cause errors or crash the game.
Look at the mod page info on the top right for when the mod was last updated.
