Operation Karbala 4

Operation Karbala 4. Was a failed offensive in 1986 by the Iranians to capture Basra in southern Iraq. It was claimed that it failed due to the help provided by the Americans. The Iraqi's were prepared for the attack helped by US intelligence they had received.

The battle itself was planned and eventually executed by Ali Akbar Hashemi Rafsanjani. The operation would be launched under cover of darkness in order to gain a foothold along the Arvand Rūd/Shatt-al-Arab waterway. Once across, the Iranian forces would go on the offensive and eventually move onto the port city of Basra. The attack would be launched towards the Umm al-Rasas Island in the Shatt al Arab.

So is this Steam only? I checked the Graviteam website and their only redirect to buy is at Steam. I have the GG version of SABOW.

If we're going Steam only I'm going to re-buy it on Steam while it's on sale.

I just rebought it on Steam myself. This is one developer that deserves the second purchase...

Yeah, $28 including DLC isn't going to break the bank.

Toonces · September 28, 2015, 07:55:04 PM

Combat Mission has swimming tanks too.

So what...I wasn't comparing them. I bought that too.

Thanks for the head's up. I think I'll just keep the Steam version for now- it's only 20 clams and since I already bought it...

Yep - I bought that Asid. For the price thats a heft load of DLC.

One question since you seem to be in the know. My steam version still has the old update procedure available.

I am presuming as its on steam I no longer need to worry about that - which always confused me with all of their games.
