Commandos 2: Men of Courage is a definitive World War II real-time strategy and tactics game released by Eidos Interactive and Pyro Studios, and it is probably my favourite PC game of all time. Some of the missions in the game were inspired by famous WW2 movies. This is my full gameplay walkthrough with commentary of Level 6, The Guns of Savo Island, which can serve as a guide for how to successfully complete the level.

Level Plot: In 1942, commandos Jack O'Hara, Thomas Hancock, James Blackwood and Samuel Brooklyn are deployed to the Pacific Theatre. In July prior to the Battle of Midway, the commandos land on the strongly fortified Savo Island to disable the large artillery guns, before Operation Watchtower can commence. While on the island, they are assisted by a castaway named Wilson. After destroying the artillery and rescuing a downed American pilot, he returns the favour by piloting a Kawanishi H8K to help them escape the island, but not before telling them of a gold monkey statue which is symbolic to the Japanese. O'Hara steals it as a souvenir. The level is inspired by the classic 1961 film "The Guns of Navarone" starring Gregory Peck, David Niven and Anthony Quinn. The castaway Wilson is presumably a reference to the Tom Hanks movie 'Castaway'.

The game sees players taking control of a squad of commandos (Green Beret, Sniper, Diver, Sapper, Driver, Spy, Thief, and Natasha) along with various allied units, as they sneak behind enemy lines to accomplish various missions in World War II, between 1941 and 1944, that will help them to thwart the war efforts of the Germans and the Japanese. The game also has an incredible music soundtrack by Mateo Pascual.

This is the original release of the game, currently available on Steam. I will also be reviewing the 2020 HD remaster soon.
