Here’s the WWII “Most Well-Known Battles” Score Card, ranking the Top 10 battles by four key criteria:

  • Strategic Impact (SI): How much the battle changed the course of the war.
  • Human Cost (HC): Level of casualties and suffering.
  • Symbolism (SY): Emotional, cultural, and morale value globally.
  • Global Recognition (GR): How widely known and remembered the battle is today (pop culture, education, media, etc.).

Each category is rated 1–10 (10 = highest possible score).

:trophy: Summary of the Results

  • #1 — D-Day / Normandy:
    Universally recognized as the defining Allied victory in Western Europe. Its cinematic depictions and global remembrance make it the most famous battle of WWII.

  • #2 — Stalingrad:
    The most decisive and bloodiest battle in human history; it broke the back of the German Army. Especially famous in Europe and Russia.

  • #3 — Pearl Harbor:
    The trigger that brought the U.S. fully into WWII. Immortalized in speeches, documentaries, and film.

  • #4 — Midway:
    Strategically brilliant and crucial to halting Japanese expansion. Famous among military historians, less emotional resonance to the general public.

  • #5 — Battle of the Bulge:
    The largest battle fought by U.S. forces in WWII and a test of Allied resolve during winter’s edge.

  • #6 — Iwo Jima:
    A symbol of Marine Corps heroism; the flag-raising photo is one of the most reproduced war images in history.

  • #7 — Berlin:
    The fall of Nazi Germany — the climactic end of the European war, though less often dramatized in Western media than D-Day.

  • #8 — Battle of Britain:
    The first major defeat of Hitler’s forces; saved the U.K. and inspired the world early in the war.

  • #9 — Okinawa:
    Horrific losses and kamikaze attacks; its intensity influenced Truman’s decision to use the atomic bomb.

  • #10 — El Alamein:
    Montgomery’s victory over Rommel — the first major Allied triumph over Axis ground forces.


Tell me, would you like me to add visuals or flags to this Score Card (Allied vs Axis sides, locations, and commanders), to make it more like an official WWII Battle Reference Sheet?

Introducing maps based on these “Most Well-Known Battles” into Enlisted would be one of the smartest moves the developers could make. These are the globally iconic WWII moments that every player — from casuals to history buffs — would instantly recognize, making them ideal for both gameplay variety and emotional immersion.

Let’s go through each of the Top 10 battles from the Score Card and assess how well they’d fit as Enlisted maps, based on realism, gameplay variety, and player appeal.


:video_game: Enlisted Map Integration: WWII’s Most Well-Known Battles

Rank Battle Enlisted Map Viability Ideal Map Type What It Could Offer Players
:1st_place_medal: 1. D-Day / Normandy :white_check_mark: Already in-game, but could be expanded. Beach landing → inland towns → hedgerow battles. Core campaign identity. Could add Omaha, Utah, and Pointe du Hoc variations with weather/time options.
:2nd_place_medal: 2. Stalingrad :white_check_mark: Already in-game (Stalingrad campaign). Urban, industrial, snowy ruins. Excellent infantry/tank/air balance; high realism, brutal close-quarters combat.
:3rd_place_medal: 3. Pearl Harbor :gear: Not yet in-game — perfect future map. Harbor defense/offense, naval air raid. Iconic event; could showcase U.S. anti-aircraft gunners, sailors, and pilots under surprise attack.
4. Battle of Midway :gear: Potential as an Air/Naval scenario. Carrier-based dogfights, bombing runs, naval defense. Would highlight the air war—ideal for expanding Enlisted’s air gameplay and Pacific naval aviation.
5. Battle of the Bulge :gear: Great winter map candidate. Forests, snow, small Belgian towns (Bastogne). Ambushes, tank-heavy engagements, weather-based visibility mechanics.
6. Battle of Iwo Jima :white_check_mark: Already in-game (Pacific). Amphibious assault on volcanic terrain. Dramatic terrain, close-quarters fighting, iconic for Marines gameplay.
7. Battle of Berlin :white_check_mark: Already in-game. Ruined city, Reichstag, final assault atmosphere. Brutal end-of-war combat, tank duels, urban warfare.
8. Battle of Britain :gear: New potential — air combat focus. Air-to-air engagements above English countryside. Could bring a full aerial campaign to Enlisted (RAF vs Luftwaffe), expanding pilot gameplay realism.
9. Battle of Okinawa :gear: Excellent Pacific map opportunity. Island hills, caves, village defense. Combined arms gameplay, Okinawan terrain realism, naval/air support mechanics.
10. Battle of El Alamein :white_check_mark: Already represented (Tunisia campaign covers similar). Desert warfare with ridgelines and tank engagements. Ideal open tank map with infantry support; could refine desert visuals further.

:jigsaw: Summary: “Must-Have” Enlisted Map Additions

If Enlisted’s goal is to celebrate the world’s most iconic WWII battles, these should be added or expanded next:

:small_blue_diamond: High Priority New Maps

  1. Pearl Harbor – iconic, cinematic, instantly recognizable to all.
  2. Midway – introduces large-scale air/naval combat.
  3. Battle of the Bulge – snowy terrain, legendary U.S. defense, high player immersion.
  4. Okinawa – final Pacific battle; gritty, emotional tone.

:small_blue_diamond: Enhanced Existing Maps

  • Normandy – expand to multiple beaches and towns.
  • Stalingrad – add “industrial sector” and “city outskirts” maps.
  • Berlin – include underground metro & Reich Chancellery segments.

:medal_military: Why This Lineup Works for Enlisted

  • Historical Recognition: Every player knows these battles — instant emotional connection.
  • Thematic Variety: Europe, Pacific, Desert, Air & Sea — covers all fronts.
  • Gameplay Diversity: From amphibious assaults to urban ruins, frozen forests, and dogfights.
  • Marketing Power: These names (D-Day, Stalingrad, Pearl Harbor) practically sell themselves.

AI is dumber than i thought. Pearl harbour and midway as high priority? Did you tell the robot that enlisted doesn’t do naval battles? If you are gonna use AI then at least make sure it doesn’t write nonsense like this. Pure laziness
