Play Allied General Online

Summary

Allied General drops you into the role of an Allied commander during World War II, letting you juggle daring invasions, paradrops, naval battles and aerial dogfights across North Africa, Western Europe and Russia. As a turn‑based sequel to the classic Panzer General, it expands the original’s engine with a pop‑up interface that lets you keep several windows open, tweak the resolution and even play via e‑mail—features that felt fresh on the Windows platform. A fan‑made “Allied Panzer General” port later re‑imagined the game for DOS, borrowing the old UI while bundling all the official scenarios and a handful of bug‑fixes. Critics gave the PlayStation and PC versions solid marks (AllGame, PC Gamer, Next Gen), praising the familiar yet polished gameplay despite a still‑weak AI, and the title moved at least 50,000 units by September 1997. For anyone who loves deep, strategic war games, Allied General remains a worthy slice of the Panzer General legacy.

Storyline

Allied General on PlayStation offers a variety of playable campaigns that let you experience key World War II battles from multiple perspectives. The game includes a Soviet campaign covering the Winter War against Finland, the desperate defenses of Moscow, and a potential counter‑attack if you succeed.

A British campaign takes you to the deserts of North Africa, starting at Sidi Barrani against German and Italian forces. A second British campaign continues the story, leading the final Allied assault on the Mareth Line in Tunis and then moving into the invasion of Europe.

An American campaign mirrors the latter British effort, beginning with Operation Torch in North Africa and following the push into Europe. Additionally, you can jump into individual scenarios on either side of the conflict.
