Well I have the first one and have been playing it again after rekindling my love for it. I wanted to know if 'Assault Squad' and 'Vietnam' were even better? And there's also a new one coming out!

But what if I put more plasma on it?

From what I've heard Vietnam is bad, Assault Squad is just MP.

Assault Squad is really good, Orren and I play it often. MP is a pretty big focus, as there's no single player campaign, but there are 3 skirmish missions per faction (Commonwealth, US, Japan, Germany, Russia), and the skirmish DLC packs (which I recommend) add 1 defense mission per faction, and 1 small, combat-patrolesque mission per faction, respectively. The Defense missions are really fun, especially if you set it to hard and pull back to your last control point and hold at all costs for the half hour until you counter attack.
Don't get Vietnam, though. Orren can tell you more, since he has it, but according to him it's kinda terrible.

Thanks I'm not sure about Assault Squad though, if it's that heavily Mulit-player based. But we shall see.

Well, you've seen how often I have it running on Steam, and I don't play Multi. The Skirmish is really fun.

Really? I haven't heard good things. Also, the fact that the Russian campaign in original MoW was longer than the German and US one put together kind of soured me on the idea of "Here, play as Russia even more!", but that's just me. I'd invest in Assault Squad instead. Reds

All I know is that the editor is a blast. I've spent 80+ hours just screwing around in it.
