The end result is that the purchase of the game funnels money directly into the hands of those that earned it, the developers and programmers. The company doesn’t need to try to buy shelf space, special boxes that catch the eye, or even fancy advertising for that matter. Battlefront doesn’t stock shelves at Wal-Mart or Comp-USA and the only way to get this title is via their website at In the past this has probably put some people off but with the advent of online purchasing this fear is becoming less and less significant. In this title Big Time Software hopes to take the best of the original Combat Mission and improve on it while eliminating the few problems that the original game had.įor those of you that don’t know, CMBB is an unusual title from what is becoming less of an unusual style of company. Combat Mission: Barbarossa to Berlin (CMBB for short) takes up the conflict during the great patriotic war from 1941 to 1945. Well, BTS and Battlefront are at it again, this time on the Russian front. It is one of the few games that I felt truly revolutionized an entire genre, taking wargaming from the relatively sterile top down perspective and finally putting wargamers into the trenches with their troops. Besides being among the best wargames ever created in my opinion, Combat Mission was the first game I reviewed for SimHq. I have something of a soft spot for and Big Time Software’s Combat Mission: Beyond Overlord.
