The strategic battlefield offers over two dozen individual battlefields with over three dozen accurately portrayed German and British battle groups.

The game includes all new maps and a range of upgraded effects.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe Setting\u003cbr\u003eWith the success of the Allied landings at Normandy and their domination of air and sea, expectations were high that the momentum would continue on land. It was not to be so. Though initially surprised and overwhelmed, the German Army quickly recovered, mobilized, and, counterattacked. Field Marshal Rommel formed a capable defense in Normandy that made the Allied advance costly. Superior Allied artillery and air power failed to crack the German lines. Though the Norman City of Caen was originally a British D-Day objective, its capture would elude and frustrate Montgomery’s 21st Army for weeks to come. Operation Epsom was Field Marshall Montgomery’s first concentrated attempt to go around the city and the Odon River, and break through the strengthening German bulwark. The newly-arrived British VIII Corps, supported by 700 guns of the Royal Artillery made a go of it along a four-mile front between Rauray and Carpiquet. Defending that front was the infamous 12th SS Panzer Division. Though reduced by weeks of heavy fighting they remained a potent and experienced foe. The Germans had offensive plans too, but the British struck first, and the 2nd SS Panzer Corps, the last of Germany’s offensive reserves in Normandy, was instead committed to stopping the British breakthrough along the Odon. Can you, as Montgomery and his commanders, re-chart the course of the Normandy campaign and prevail against Germany’s SS Panzer divisions?  Can you as the Germans, once again stop Montgomery, or eclipse history and push the British back entirely?\u003ch2 class=\"bb_tag\"\u003eFeatures\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul class=\"bb_ul\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThirty new battlefield maps accurately reflect the Odon Valley west of Caen, France.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e65 vehicles, 36 infantry units, 77 weapons.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNew vehicles and guns including Churchill, Cromwell, M-10 Achilles, and Firefly tanks; 17-pdr AT guns, Loyd Carriers, and more.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRevised terrain files that represent the specific conditions of the Odon battlefield: tall cornfields and hindered, muddy movement during rainy weather.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNew features including Rolling barrages and dug-in\/camouflaged tanks and anti-tank guns.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHistoric regimental names and battalion organization.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMount troops or guns on vehicles.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIntegrated multi-player lobby and match-making forums.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEnhanced Scenario Editor - Create your own \"what if\" Scenarios. \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Matrix Games","offers":[{"title":"Standard \/ ROW","offer_id":46772915634337,"sku":"297750-ROW","price":7.75,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0730\/4753\/9873\/files\/capsule_616x353_0ef1acbc-4df8-452f-9305-7d6a7db1e482.jpg?v=1785310085"},{"product_id":"close-combat-wacht-am-rhein-pc-steam","title":"Close Combat: Wacht am Rhein - PC (Steam)","description":"\u003cstrong\u003eClose Combat is a pausable real-time wargame series, heavily focused on historical accuracy and realistic soldier psychological profiles.
