The
most realistic modern tactical simulation now comes to CD, with
all the pieces in one awesome package!
One of
the most hyper realistic wargames available, BCT Commander
is a real time strategy game that examines the complexities of
fighting on the modern battlefield. Developed by Patrick Proctor
and his team at ProSim, BCT Commander is real enough to
be in use as a senior commander training tool for armies around
the world. If you've ever bemoaned the lack of realism found in
most wargames here's your chance to step up to the plate and see
how well you would do in command.
BCT
Commander is more than a wargame though, it's a complete
simulation of land warfare. And what exactly does that mean? The
easiest definition is that a simulation attempts to create an
accurate interpretation of reality without regard to balance
issues, while a game strives for balance more than realism. In BCT
Commander units behave like they do in real life. You won't
find perfectly balanced sides, nor will you find many
conventions you're used to in gaming. For example, ordering a
unit to start moving won't see it hitting warp five out of the
gate. In real life military units don't do 0-60 in 5.5 seconds,
unlike your typical RTS game.
This may
seem daunting at first but the rewards gained are immense.
Anyone can do a tank rush, but can they mount a three pronged
coordinated attack on a heavily entrenched enemy position? BCT
Commander is a real time strategy game that requires more
brainpower than fingerpower. Victors will emerge not from
knowing how to hit the hotkeys fastest, but knowing what your
forces are capable of and what the enemy can do to those forces.
Speaking
of real time, it should be noted that real time in BCT
Commander truly means real time. One second of gameplay is
the equivalent of one second of real world time. What this means
to the player is that he can expect true to life reload times,
artillery barrages that don't arrive instantaneously, troops
that take time to mount and dismount, and much more. In short, BCT
Commander's use of real time is more than just a gimmick,
it's an important facet of the simulation aspect.
BCT
Commander includes the original Brigade Combat Team, both
expansion CDs, and the construction set for creating your own
scenarios, all on one CD! Saddle up and see what it's like to
take command of a modern military unit with BCT Commander!
