Battleground Europe (various pricing, 14-day free trial) made its debut in 2001 as "World War Two Online." It followed a familiar pattern: Launched too soon due to financial concerns, it had constant hardware and software issues and lost momentum, unable to attract a large audience. Nonetheless, it has soldiered on (heh), and is still running, and trying to attract and retain new players.

There's a 14-day free trial and then a monthly subscription at a variety of costs. Paid plans start at $18/month for the "non plan" rate (higher than any other MMO I am aware of) down to $13/month for the 1-year plan.

Note: The Download button takes you to the vendor's site, where you can download the latest version of the software.
