Dunno whether anyone has already seen this over at Polygon, but they've done a potted history of Battlefront.

Don't know anything about Combat Mission and I've heard of Battlefront.  That was a pretty good story.  Thanks for posting the link.

ye have not played the Steel Panthers of the 21st century?  how did that happen?
Jarhead - Yeah. You're probably right.

Gus - I use sweatpants with flannel shorts to soak up my crotch sweat.

Banzai Cat - There is no "partial credit" in grammar. Like anal sex. It's either in, or it's not.

Mirth - We learned long ago that they key isn't to outrun Star, it's to outrun Gus.

Martok - I don't know if it's possible to have an "anti-boner"...but I now have one.

Gus - Celery is vile and has no reason to exist. Like underwear on Star.

Sucks. Less content.  Less info on screen. Does not feel realistic.

Couldn't dis agree more. Yes, less content but smaller platform. I found play the same. Read my review on Armchairgeneral.

I'll blow your mind even further, I wouldn't know Steel Panthers if I tripped over it.  I didn't have a computer until I got married in late 1999.  The first game I bought was Civ II.  The list of games I have played dedicated to war exclusively is short.
