The oppressive sense of claustrophobia that made real-life hedgerow
battles so nerve-wracking and bitterly contested is exceedingly, and
sometimes disturbingly, re-created by Squad Assault...Squad Assault is a
delight.

The technical
aspects of this game are very good. We've got great graphics, great sound, and
nice blood pools when units die.

Any war game that
reminds me of either little plastic soldiers or Saving Private Ryan is good, and Squad Assault: West
Front does both. Not only are the individual members of the squads realistic
and action-oriented, they fit into the history of World War II precisely.

”Squad Assault:
West Front will take a place as a premier tactical game.”
Game Description
In Squad Assault: West Front™, you command troops in both the Allied and German
Armies of the West Front of World War II in an immersive full 3-D continuous
time environment. Squad Assault: West Front™ features detailed models for all
the major armies that fought in France in 1944, including American, German,
British, Canadian, and Free French.
For those who prefer traditional turn-oriented play, a user
defined auto-pause feature for order entry and battlefield assessment allows
for a more thoughtful game. A 2D overhead map view with order entry is also
available for those who prefer to see the battle from above.
Once the battle starts, the virtual soldiers you command respond with real
reactions to the combat situations around them. This psychological modeling
combines with unsurpassed detail in terrain, weather, weapons, vehicles, and
armor penetration to make Squad Assault: West Front™ a riveting recreation of
World War II tactical combat.
Multi-player options for head to head play via TCP/IP / LAN
are included.
