FROM THE ANNOUNCEMENT

Developed by the team at Battlefront.com, this special retail-only edition of the “Wargame of the Year” award winner includes 65 new scenarios and 15 new operations, guaranteeing hours of exciting game play. Combining unparalleled content depth and ease of use within a true 3D environment, Combat Mission 3: Afrika Korps offers an effective and innovative balance of turn-based and real-time strategy, delivering the best in WWII tactical warfare.
Key features of Combat Mission 3: Afrika Korps include:
* Three theaters of war — Crete, Italy and North Africa.
* Historically accurate units representing seven nations, including Germany, Great Britain, the United States and Italy are available in the game.
* Fully researched and detailed TO&E (Tables of Organization and Equipment) for all seven nations.
* All vehicle combat capabilities are modeled on their real-world counterparts, and weapons are rated in abilities including effective range and armor penetration.
* Meticulously researched vehicle and uniform models, paint schemes and sound effects.
* Units use line-of-sight and audio cues to determine the position of the enemy, while the confusion of battle can cause friendly units to mistakenly be identified as foes.
* Realistic weather and terrain affect combat outcomes.
* A mission and map editor for creating custom scenarios.
* Optional “historical rarity of units” setting ensures players will no longer have to worry that their opponents “cherry picked” unrealistic forces.
