Hearts of Iron IV: Man the Guns DLC Review

8.5 Total Score
Very good

The war at sea takes center stage in Hearts of Iron IV: Man the Guns, a new expansion to Paradox Development Studio’s popular strategy wargame. From the convoy attacks in the Battle of the Atlantic to the fierce carrier battles on the Pacific front, the Second World War saw naval innovation in both tactics and technology. Man the Guns also introduces new alternate history paths for the major democracies of the war and gives the freedom loving nations of the world more freedom to act before the war forces their hand. All in all, it's a very good DLC. Improves the naval function quite well, and it's easier for small countries to focus on naval battles as well.
