Maybe someone remembers such a hardcore game Eric Young's Squad Assault: Westfront (and GI Combat before it) released in 2003? I wonder why it wasn't developed? Many people are waiting for a long time new 3D Close Combat game, but EYSA was kind of 3D Close Combat game sixteen years ago.

My Favorite is Close Combat 3: Russian Front. Great Classic You can get it now on GoG.com for $5. Only downside to it now is you cant mod the GoG version they did something to the script to make it compatible with Win 10.

Oh, I remember it alright. I was allowed to beta test it. The game is total ****. I don't like real time, but, even the real-time crowd considered it ****. EYSA was merely perfume on the pig that was GI Combat.

Now, please let us forget the game ever happened :)

Wasn't great from what I remember. They moved on to a Combat Mission type of game, well similar to first Combat Mission games. They are still for sale here. Can't remember their name though. Set in East Front.

Found name. Panzer Command OstFront
