BATTLEFRONT

RATING: Everyone

RELEASE DATE: February 6, 2007

PUBLISHER: Matrix Games

DEVELOPER:Strategic Studies Group



Your troops await your orders…

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.

While the Battlefront system shares a design philosophy with SSG’s award-winning Decisive Battles series, it is actually an entirely new system specifically designed for battalion-level combat. This level of play gives the player a chance to experience the true issues of command, control, sighting, and supply at a level that emphasizes plenty of tough decisions to make as the great generals of that era had to deal with. The combat system provides new and varied ways to damage your opponent, with provisions for direct and indirect fire, air strikes, and special, historically accurate combat modes (such as Japanese Banzai attacks). Deploy your troops and take command of the Battlefront!

Game Features:

• Improved Strategic AI enables a more flexible response to fast changing battlefields

• Improved user interface simplifies unit information

• Command and control system that rewards correct employment of military assets

• Close combat routines have special attack modes such as Banzai, Surprise and Infiltration.

• Indirect Fire from artillery and air assets can directly attack enemy units.

• Sighting, command, supply and danger zone rules encourage sensible use of artillery

• Complete Unit, Map and AI editor allows users to create scenarios from scratch

• Improved Play By Email security

... and many more!
