How it feels

A slow, methodical wargame that feels like directing a real armored division through France's hedgerows, where every move matters and casualties feel heavy.

What players say

Players say Combat Mission Battle for Normandy offers unmatched tactical depth but is held back by bugs, a tiny UI at higher resolutions, and a steep learning curve with virtually no tutorial. Many recommend buying only on sale, citing a greedy DLC model and prices they consider too high for such an old engine.
