Tales of Valor is the third installment to Company of Heroes (CoH) series. The game has 3 campaigns, and all the maps and factions of the CoH and CoH: Opposing Fronts. Even though its a new release game, its like an expansion pack of the old game.
Set in World War II, based on real events, the story is divided in three different stories about certain individuals and battles in the war, and focused on 3 major events in which the Tales of Valor of each individuals to booast moral of others and help win the war.
Tales of Valor includes new units, additional maps and further multiplayer modes, such as Stonewall, where the player commands a small number of troops against waves of increasingly difficult enemies, and a feature called "direct-fire", a mode in which you point and click where you want a specific unit to fire
The graphics, while still the same as the first Company of Heroes with slight improvements in cut scenes, are still good and provide enough eye-candy for those who want good gameplay and good graphics altogether. With that said, one should have a fairly good computer to be able to play this game smoothly at higher settings, especially on larger maps with more A.I. controlled armies. The sounds in the Company of Heroes games are nicely done and have been updated, and fit in nicely with the World War II setting. Explosions, gun fire, etc.
Overall, Company of Heroes: Tales of Valor is a great game.
