This may well be John Tiller’s masterpiece. For dynamic, white-knuckled intensity and fine-grained realism, it comes closer than any previous PC game to replicating the spirit of that legendary boardgame classic "Advanced Squad Leader."
The game plays well, creates delightful tension, and captures the ebb and flow of small unit actions. It's just too bad that HPS won't invest money in upgrading graphics or printing a manual. If they did, they'd have a turn-based winner.
It's still a superlative wargame, but it's not Tiller's best. It is, however, perhaps his most accessible.

Summary A turn-based game at the squad-level using 40 meter hexes and 5 minute turns. Scenarios range in duration from a single-squad ambush scenario up to a 27 turn battalion-level melee. The major campaigns such as Starlite, Cedar Falls, Tet, and Hamburger Hill are all covered in detail. [HPS Simulations]
