Close Combat 2: A Bridge Too Far

Real-time strategy game set in Operation Garden, where you command Allied or Axis forces to capture five strategic bridges in World War II.

Based on Operation Garden, the game challenges players to take control of five strategic bridges in a World War II battle. It lets you command Allied or Axis forces across war-room strategy and trench combat.

Troops may be war-weary, cowardly, or too inexperienced for heavy combat, and they will not obey suicidal orders. Real-time action includes tank attacks, enemy ambushes, and automatic weapon fire on historically accurate battlefields.

Resource allocation determines which operations receive reinforcements and which must make do with limited reserves. Damage and territory carry forward, so captured ground affects later battles.

It includes three-front real-time combat, Battlemaker for creating custom battles, and more than 130 modeled infantry and vehicles. Difficulty and complexity range from single battle to grand campaign.
