Despite the first game on the engine being Shock Force, the game works better with the WW2 era games. Infantry units are invisible past 800m. You'll notice this painfully in one of the base Shock Force 2 missions where you've got a narrow map to charge through and ATGMs are sitting some 1km+ away. You even get given humvees with decent sights and they do literally nothing for it.
As far as I know Fortress Italy runs like shit relatively speaking. Cold War isn't bad but it's a lot different compared to either modern or WW2. 1979 scenarios have the deck stacked in the soviets favour and 1981 either flips it or equalises it.
