my 1st T72 mission review (AAR)

If your thinking of getting it... pretty cool so far, but I've only touched the basics so far... heres one of the first single player missions:

and more screens from the training, on my gaming site.

FYI

Did you take out the enemy tank? Looked like a destroyed Jumbo Sherman.

**Magnum50** · 07-10-2005, 02:36 PM

you didn't read the story, lol... you just looked at the pictures...

I saw the tank crest the hill, then back away... I thought he was getting into a hull down position, only after the mission, did I realize he rolled off the hill, lol.

Redleg75 · 07-10-2005, 02:52 PM

Humm yeah I missed that part, I read about the AT firing and him going hull down.

So you think it is worth the $35?

**Magnum50** · 07-10-2005, 04:00 PM

Well.. there ain't to many tank sims out there anymore... so not as great as I would of hoped, still pretty cool, and fun.. added more screens of serious combat action here:

I love the tank battles, sim as a whole is nice... but it doesn't have that whole war/battlefield feel, like say OFP... it's usually you, maybe another tank or two, with a squad of infantry... and alot of wide open space.

What about Steel Beasts 2? What is the latest on that?

**Magnum50** · 07-10-2005, 05:26 PM

the consumer version wont be released till 2006... the 125 dollar Pro version is said to be released by summers end... subject to change of course.

So that was *your* AAR I read over at Battlefront! How funny to discover this now. I fully intend to get this game. After playing CMBB and CMAK, I really need some serious first person tank sim action!
