Is it still worth playing?

A 1994 computer wargame of the Second World War, turn based on hex maps at an operational level, with units roughly the size of battalions. Scenarios can be played for the Axis or the Allies against the computer or a human, or you can lead a campaign as a German general from 1939 to 1945. Winning carries forward. Success in a battle awards prestige that upgrades units, buys more of them and opens better scenarios. Every unit gains experience, and each is strong against some types and vulnerable to others. Dug in enemies have to be softened by artillery, which needs protection of its own. A whole war of combined arms, with an army that carries over from battle to battle, still gives plenty to plan today.
