BCT Commander is about the closest you can get to a modern high-fidelity military training simulator without needing a security pass. Interested in toe-to-toe tactical nuclear combat with OPFOR? Been waiting for the ground combat equivalent of Harpoon II? Then read on!

Do you have a link handy for your Games Domain review? I'd really like to read it, but wasn't able to find it on the GD site by searching the archives. Perhaps it's too recent a review to be in their archive index?

Thanks,

Peter

p.s. Virtoz, I've read Bolger's book on the Light Infantry called 'Death Ground'. He certainly has a way with words! BCT is very different from PE...especially since it's modern vs WW2. If you like Steel Beasts, especially playing around on the map screen, then you'll definitely like BCT.

--------------------

From what I've seen of it, Panzer Elite is very different from BCT. Panzer Elite focuses on platoon-level combat, while BCT usually hands you the eponymous Brigade Combat Team. There's no pretty 3D view, no gunnery mode.... instead, you need to work on coordinating your forces for maximum effect. It's more like playing SB *only* from the map screen.

No wonder I like BCT so much.

--------------------

I suppose I have been guilty of waiting for "Steel Beasts II 3D".

...and of not having enough time...
..and playing DOD2 too much...
...and IL-2 not enough...
...and F4...still...
