The Setting:
Combat Mission: Beyond Overlord takes you from Normandy 1944 to Germany 1945 on World War Two's Western Front. Play as Allied or Axis, ranging from US Airborne to German Volkssturm. Battle across the bocage, tackle a village or two, drive through the plains, push into the woods, and slog it out in cities. CM provides all this and more with its historical scenarios and campaigns. And if there is a battle that isn't covered, make it up yourself with the easy to use editor.

The Scale:
Units are squads, teams, and individual vehicles. You can command a force as small as a platoon, or as large as a reinforced battalion. Each man and weapon is kept track of for maximum realism. For example, check out what a Sturmgruppe squad looks like.

The Scope:
Each turn is equal to 60 seconds of combat. Players give orders in a turn-based fashion, and then these orders are simultaneously executed for 60 seconds of "real time". Then the next orders phase begins. A typical scenario lasts about 40 turns, or 40 minutes of simulated combat. There are also operations in CM, but not like you are used to. You are put in command of a force tasked with a single ultimate objective. You might have an afternoon or several days' worth of combat to achieve your objective. You fight a small engagement (20-30 turns or so), then move on to another after a brief rest and refit. Fight during the day, at night, or into the early hours of the next day. It all depends on the campaign and your skills.

The Features:
There is so much new, different, and better about Combat Mission that it is hard to know where to start! Most features break with "standard" conventions, like spotting via sound, or misidentification of targets. Others simply do a much better job, like the instant feedback 3D LOS check. Still others go into uncharted territory, like the adjustable waypoint movement system and incredibly accurate armor penetration algorithms. Check out all the links associated with Combat Mission and catch a glimpse of some of what Combat Mission offers.

The Historical Accuracy:
We can not even begin to tell you how much love and effort has been put into the research. Whether it is the detailed TO&Es (Tables of Organization and Equipment), accurate OBs (Orders of Battle), weapon characteristics, or the intense armor penetration algorithms (be prepared to be surprised!), Combat Mission brings historical integrity to a new level.

System Requirements:
166MHz Processor (Celeron, Pentium, Athlon, etc)
32MB of RAM
100MB of Hard Disk Space (approx.)
DirectX 6.0 or higher compatible video card
DirectX 6.0 or higher for Windows (Recommend DirectX 8.1)
DirectX 6.0 higher compatible sound card
28.8 modem or faster for multiplayer games

It is strongly recommended that you have a 3D Video card, preferably with 16MB of VRAM or more. Even a 4MB card will work, but the texture quality and framerate will be marginal compared to better card.
