MAKING HISTORY: The Calm and the Storm is a true grand strategy game that puts players in control of global conflict, combining a highly sophisticated AI with rich historical detail. The game is unique among World War II games in the way it challenges gamers to achieve economic and diplomatic victory, not just military success.

The fate of that nation is entirely in your hands as the world melts into chaos and global conflict. With behavioral models of over 70 countries Making History is a totally new approach to strategy games, where brain cells are as important as bullets.

• Effortless navigation: Player’s console provides one-click access to all critical information and action areas: economic status; natural resources and production capacity; military units; diplomatic agreements; game score summary; comparison to real history; and more.
• Deep Regional Detail: Every country is richly detailed with its major industrial, civilian and military resources. Regional terrain and geopolitical features are rendered in true-to-life form and they change shape based on actions in the game. In total, MH2 provides over 800 land and sea regions.
• Extensive Economic Models: Extremely detailed and dynamic economic models, more than any other video game. Makes the MH2 a true challenge of global leadership, not just a test of military might.

• Country as Character: Each of the playable nations is designed with the unique "personality" and physical assets it possessed in World War II.
