Close Combat: A Bridge Too Far is a real-time, historically accurate World War II strategy game that puts you in command of either the Allied or Axis forces during the epic Operation Market Garden battle in German controlled Holland.
This follow up to the original Close Combat features highly realistic tactical combat for intense "in the trenches" fighting, adds a new strategic layer to challenge players to out-think their opponents in the war room, and includes dynamic battle flow in which players can push or be pushed back across battle maps. Another new innovation will be Battlemaker, which gives players the ability to create customized battles by setting deployment zones, victory locations, initial force mix and requisition points. And it wouldn't be a Close Combat sequel without realistic soldier behaviors and full multiplayer capabilities. See if you have what it takes to rewrite history, or better yet, see if you have what it takes to lead men into battle, survive, and win.
As the clock ticks down in the desperate fight to control five strategic bridges across the rivers Rhine, Waal and Maas, you'll see why Operation Market-Garden is easily one of the most dramatic battles of World War II. The biggest airdrop operation ever attempted, this battle cost the Allies nearly twice as many casualties as D-Day and although it was hoped to be the lightning strike needed to end the war in 1944, things didn't quite go as planned.
