Gra warta zagrania, oprócz interesującej grafiki (2D) można dowiedzieć się dość dużej ilości ciekawych rzeczy na temat Powstania Warszawskiego

Aug. 2024

The Warsaw Uprising (Polish: powstanie warszawskie ; German: Warschauer Aufstand ), shortly after the war also known as the August Uprising (Polish: powstanie sierpniowe ), was a major World War II operation by the Polish underground resistance to liberate Warsaw from German occupation. It occurred in the summer of 1944, and it was led by the Polish resistance Home Army (Polish: Armia Krajowa ). The uprising was timed to coincide with the retreat of the German forces from Poland ahead of the Soviet advance. While approaching the eastern suburbs of the city, the Red Army halted combat operations, enabling the Germans to regroup and defeat the Polish resistance and to destroy the city in retaliation. The Uprising was fought for 63 days with little outside support. It was the single largest military effort taken by any European resistance movement during World War II. The Uprising began on 1 August 1944 as part of a nationwide Operation Tempest, launched at the time of the Soviet Lublin–Brest Offensive. The main Polish objectives were to drive the Germans out of Warsaw while helping the Allies defeat Germany. An additional, political goal of the Polish Underground State was to liberate Poland's capital and assert Polish sovereignty before the Soviet-backed Polish Committee of National Liberation could assume control. Other immediate causes included a threat of mass German round-ups of able-bodied Poles for "evacuation"; calls by Radio Moscow's Polish Service for uprising; and an emotional Polish desire for justice and revenge against the enemy after five years of German occupation. Scholarship since the fall of the Soviet Union, combined with eyewitness accounts, has questioned Soviet motives and suggested their lack of support for the Warsaw Uprising represented their ambitions in Eastern Europe. The Red Army did not reinforce resistance fighters or provide air support. Declassified documents indicate that Joseph Stalin had tactically halted his forces from advancing on Warsaw in order to exhaust the Polish Home Army and to aid his political desires of turning Poland into a Soviet-aligned state. Scholars note the two month period of the Warsaw Uprising marked the start of the Cold War. Casualties during the Warsaw Uprising were catastrophic. Although the exact number of casualties is unknown, it is estimated that about 16,000 members of the Polish resistance were killed and about 6,000 badly wounded. In addition, between 150,000 and 200,000 Polish civilians died, mostly from mass executions. Jews being harboured by Poles were exposed by German house-to-house clearances and mass evictions of entire neighbourhoods. The defeat of the Warsaw Uprising also further decimated urban areas of Poland. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Warsaw_Uprising

"A truly amazing game! The only problem I have with it is that before, it was called 'The City of Heroes' and just 'WARSAW RISING.' We could choose our own missions, and I really loved that about the game. The fact that you had to manage different districts was insanely awesome. However, after it was named 'The City of Heroes,' it lost that ability, and we have to do the same missions every time, every single playthrough. I feel like it lost the charm it had before. I understand that it's a historical game, but I still wish that we had the option to choose the missions since I loved it so much. Nevertheless, I still highly recommend it. I would just like to have what it was before back."
