Test your command skills in six scenarios:

Breakthrough 1940: May, 1940

Patton's Drive: August 1944
The breakout from Normandy is complete; the Allied armies are poised to race across France. You must decide whether to push Patton's 3rd Army eastward, or to drive to the Channel ports with Montgomery's British army, facing a weak but still formidable German 15th Army. Or do you try to do both?

Liberation of the Low Countries: September 1944
The drive to the Rhine has stalled, and the Germans have stabilized their lines. A daring gamble is made, to use the Allied airborne units to pave a path through the Netherlands, and form a bridgehead across the Rhine. Will they follow the historical Market-Garden plan, or a different strategy?

Bulge / Nordwind: December 1944
Winter. The lines are stable, but weak in points. Unknown to the Allied commanders, the German armies have massed for a two-pronged attack - Bulge, followed by Nordwind. Their goal; to split the British armies from the American armies, and capture the vital city of Antwerp.

Crossing the Rhine: February 1945
