• Flexible command: Give orders to your entire platoon or to individual tanks. Plus, you can jump into any tank, taking over as commander, gunner, or driver whenever you wish.

• Infinite variety: Thousands of battlefields, millions of situations for endless play. Day or night battles- in clear weather, rain, snow or mud. Take on single battles or wage war from start to finish.
