the problem of scale is fundamental, hoi4 can't simulate real events that happened in ww2, the rare infiltrations of regular units beyond fronts...

but down to a certain man-scale "fronts" just don't exist. armies were distinct, small scale entities that manouvered around each other in ways hoi4 can't simulate.

I'd say if you want to experience war about as realistic as it possibly could be, but in a video game, I'd honestly say the only game that comes to mind is "Foxhole".

Yeah I've played it on and off since it came out and it just keeps getting more intricate.
