- A terrain rendering engine that enables players to read the lay of the land
- Superior AI that frees the player from micromanaging his units
- Sophisticated algorithms that enable real-world tactics to apply
- A powerful 2D map with line-of-sight display that allows meaningful prebattle planning

- Sophisticated damage modeling, including loss of communications
- Modeled infantry.

Pros: being a combat vet (US Marine) I have been around these machines in various places like Iraq. the sound effects in this game are so real it gave me chills to here them again as far as the rounds blasting in your ear, great graphics graet free demo can play over and over again.
Cons: wish you had some type of radar, but still good game. hard to nav on mapgot to figure out what is what and so forth. but over all great game small download

Summary: The game is very realistic and this means that you have to practice a lot to get proficient at it. Not for those looking for easy entertainment.
