RE: Strategic Command shows the course of World War 2 in screenshots

<t> Great shots. Looks like it's going to be a great game. From an old grognard.<br/>
<br/>
Now that said, how about some shots with NATO symbols? I know the new crowd has to have more imagery in the icon. But IMHO, the NATO symbols provide a more clear overall picture.<br/>

RE: Failed Airborne Drop

RE: Unplayable

<t> It's the depth of mastery that makes it fun...entertaining...and yes, educational.<br/>

As others have noted, some of the fun comes in finding out how to master the depth. And it's not just for depth or mastery sake. The model is designed to foster an understanding of the deeper ...
