Close Combat a la 1980
A very solid wargame, plays very similarly to Close Combat, but at a higher level, you're commanding more troops and formations. While there isn't much to speak up campaign wise aside from some prebuilt missions, the game lets you choose a small area of a larger map(central germany and southern finland) to fight over, then you set your point limit and build your force. Several WP and NATO nations to choose from with their own arsenals ranging from the 60s to the 80s. As far as gameplay goes, you're not giving individual commands out, but more giving general commands to platoon level formations(advance here, advance to contact there, etc), so there's not necessarily a ton of micromanagement to deal with The UI is pretty amazing, pretty much all your commands can be given in a single click(similar to graviteam's interface) All in all, if you're looking for some real time cold war tactics, this is it
