December, 1944 - World War II is in full swing, with the Allied armies piercing their way into Europe. Their extended position leaves them vulnerable to a German offensive strike.

Launch air attacks against the enemy but keep your eyes on the skies; random weather patterns can wreak havoc on your offensives from above. History in the making is in your hands!

Interesting old game
Not the best of the series, as it is Close Combat V, but arguably the second best. Plenty of armoured vehicles in this one.
