Battlefront is a turn-based strategy from Strategic Studies Group, a company specializing in this genre. The product was released to celebrate the 20th anniversary of the launch of a board game of the same title and is a faithful computer adaptation of the game.
Battlefront features the power of battalion-level combat in some of this period's most bloody and intense conflicts: Saipan, Market Garden, Novorossisk, and Gazala. Players will have realistic control over their soldiers, with a tactical scale just large enough to make a telling difference in the strategic picture.Game Features
