Military Operations: Benchmark - Have You Tried It?

The benchmark for this very promising PC war game that will bring WWII alive from Armies through Platoons has been released already.

From the early version of the benchmark that I showed you before, there have been plenty of optimizations and additions.

The one feature that got me very excited about is the maneuver graphics/orders, which apparently the player will be able to draw himself and let the AI to execute the details.

I can hardly wait to see a Corps move into battle at a place of my choice. There is going to be a lot of learning about your virtual subordinates, so I'm reading myself for a command experience not for the faint of heart.

Another highlight is the engine's ability to show you the theater of operations at different angles and still keeping the player with a very good perception of key strategic locations the distances involved in the operation. In these departments, for the France '40 scenario featured in the benchmark, this war game by far surpasses any other game I have played.

Cheers,
