Combat Mission takes you from Normandy 1944 to Germany 1945 on World War Two's Western Front. Play as Allied or Axis, ranging from US Airborne to German Volkssturm. Battle across the blockage, tackle a village or two, drive through the plains, push into the woods, and slog it out in cities. CM provides all this and more with its historical scenarios and campaigns. And if there is a battle that isn't covered, make it up yourself with the easy to use editor.

We can not even begin to tell you how much love and effort has been put into the research. Whether it is the detailed T. O. & E’s (Tables of Organisation and Equipment), accurate OBs (Orders of Battle), weapon characteristics, or the intense armour penetration algorithms (be prepared to be surprised!), Combat Mission brings historical integrity to a new level.
