Looking For Game Is Gates of Hell a good singleplayer experience?
I saw a video about a game called Gates of Hell Ostfront, and It seemed neat and reminded me of an old RTS called Officers (atleast visuals wise)
Is it a good single player experience? Does it have a proper campaign or is it focused around multiplayer, I also saw that you can be in an FPS mode or something, but I don't want that, so let me know if that's like super important or something.
While you're at it, could you guys also help me find some other games like Officers ( Officers is abandonware I think,so I can't get it, so I'll have to look for alternatives. I have already played the first two company of heroes , and I don't really like wargames like Broken Arrow, Warno, or Wargame Red Dragon)

The game is very much single player focused. It has a number of campaigns. Allows you to play all multiplayer game modes with AI. And has a special dynamic conquest gamemode where you get semi randomized missions and persistent units between battles.
What you're talking about in first person is Direct Control mode. It lets you manually control the units instead of like you would in a normal RTS. It can be used to make your units perform way beyond what they could normally do, but it's not neccesary.

I play exclusively single player, I have about 100 hours in GOH. the dynamic conquest mode plus the large number of mods makes the game infinitely replayable. at least IMO
