Description

Close Combat 5: Invasion: Normandy - Utah Beach to Cherbourg includes a free copy of Close Combat (Windows 7 / 8 only, added as a bonus goodie)



Close Combat: Invasion: Normandy takes WWII realism back to the beaches of Northern France. Re-live the campaign that gave the Allies a foothold on the doorstep of Fortress Europe. From Utah Beach to Cherbourg, Invasion: Normandy gives you strategic and tactical control of Allied or Axis forces in the pivotal battles that determined the fate of Europe.

Battle your way from Utah Beach to Cherbourg!

  • Campain system allows movement of multiple battle groups on a strategic map of the Cotentin Peninsula.
  • Accurate real-time battlefield: soldier morale and psyche model developed by a combat psychologist; realistic modeling for weapons, vehicles, historical weather and historical teams.
  • True line-of-sight and line-of-fire gameplay; direct and indirect fire with limited ammunition.
  • Easy-to-use Scenario Editor allows you to design your own battles, operations and full campaigns. You can even make special "what-if" scenarios to trade with other players.
  • Continuity from battle to battle: your tactical successes and failure have a direct impact on the whole campaign.

Good but remake is better

Close Combat: The Longest Day remake by Matrix Games is big improvement over the original plus it includes a lot more maps!
