- Yes. SSI makes a game called Typhoon of Steel which resembles the
- Squad Leader strategy on the W Europe/Africa/Pacific fronts. I beleive they
- also make a game similar, but on the Eastern Front. These games are squad/unit
- type games. They also make games for divisional/brigade type stratgey (Western
- Front) and the whole WWII, that covers production, research, etc (Storm
- Across Europe). Now they have a new game called Pacific War, that covers the
- entire PTO. All of these SSI games are excellent, but hard to find in stores
- (Except Pac War, which is new). If you order directly from SSI, it will cost
- an arm and a leg.
