    The missions are an interesting introduction to the different gameplay you can expect from the multiplayer. However, the campaign is ridiculously short (4 hours tops) and the hero units are way too strong. This is the only downside to the expansion: you will be dissapointed if you expect the same level of storytelling and long campaigns that were the trademark of previous COH campaigns.

This is the only downside to the expansion: you will be dissapointed if you expect the same level of storytelling and long campaigns that were the trademark of previous COH campaigns. On the plus side, the AI is ridiculously strong now, and expert computers make for a very good practice when there's nobody else online. They are aggressive, have good capping orders, and the cpu is vicious and relentless. The new units are a mixed bag, and they are fairly balanced, letting players try out different types of playstyle. For example, the M17 is a glass cannon that trades the armor and mine-laying abilities of the M8 for a more powerful rapid-firing cannon and very weak armor. It is a worthy addition to your collection.… Expand

    I'd give it 9.5/10 for MP, 5/10 for SP. This clearly is multi-player oriented expansion. Since I play CoH mostly on-line, I give it high overall score. Single player missions are short and easy.

    If you're a new player to the series, it comes with the full suite of company of heroes multiplayer. If you're a veteran, the new modes may offer little and you may want to wait until this game goes cheap. The new dota mode, tanks battles and survival mode add many hours to this game.

I'm an avid Command and Conquer fan, so I enjoyed this, however I find that a major drawback of this game is how long it takes. In C&C, it's fairly easy to acquire an army, a well fortified base, and a good defense. In Company of Heroes, it's difficult to get a defense and an attack force ready quickly. This is because there are 3 different types of "monetary value" you need to purchase units, buildings, and upgrades. Of course, this IS much more realistic, however if you have little time to play and would like to get a game in before you head to bed or work, you won't be able to finish.

While the missions are interesting and fun, they are very short--you might get three hours total out of all of them. Maybe.

The campaign was only stapled on as a tutorial for the new mechanics this game introduces which are few. You will probably NOT play these game modes often if at all and like most people will only play standard multiplayer modes.

    I feel robbed, no way is this worth the price, cant even use direct fire in 1v1, maybe worth a £5 but its just a few extra bits. last about 4hrs campaign wise... DO NOT BUY if u have the others... robbed robbed robbed.

    This feels more like $5-$10 DLC than a full-blown expansion pack. It doesn't really seem fair that non-ToV users don't get to take advantage of the new units, especially considering how powerful some of them are, compared to the counterparts they replace.

    Yet another poor expansion for what used to be a good game. The single player is ridiculously short for the price and doesn't feel at all like CoH should. The new game modes are all terrible and not at all in the spirit of CoH. Why they decided we need a very poor DotA clone in CoH is probably best left unknown. The one game mode that is ok is in reality a poor version of various Yet another poor expansion for what used to be a good game.

The one game mode that is ok is in reality a poor version of various custom maps that have been around for a while anyway (and for free i add). This game is honestly not even worth the £2.49 they're currently asking for it on steam. The only good thing i can say is that it gives you access to all the sides in multiplayer if you're a masochist and enjoy playing extremely frustrating games.… Expand

    One of the WORST!!! Games i have ever played... just a bad camera position, far too close to get a good overview, especially because you have to micro your soldiers all the time!! all of your units... they get nothing done and often do things first after the 3rd or 4th direction. They are unable to find the shortest way and some times just run in with enemy fire instead of attacking, veryOne of the WORST!!!

They are unable to find the shortest way and some times just run in with enemy fire instead of attacking, very unuseful for a mortar for example. The online don't run anyway and there is no support... i am scared of THQ giving their name for such a crap. If you want do something good, don't buy this!… Expand

    It is war on a personal level - instead of entire units, battles are fought by carefully selected small groups of individuals. It would be possible to come to know each of them, were it not for the short span of this standalone expansion. [May 2009]

    It just doesn't hang together as a coherent package in its own right, and while the gameplay certainly doesn't sully the memory of the original, the thin spread of content is cause for concern.

    Gamers who spend the majority of their time in single-player modes should pass this one by. If you’re an online-focused player, though, Tales of Valor provides hours of amusement, especially if the community takes advantage of the excellent mod tools to flesh out the map selection.
