Close Combat: Gateway to Caen is a great release in the critically-acclaimed Close Combat series.

Players can experience the desperate situation of the outnumbered, but well-armed Panzergrenadiers, or the daunting offensive mission of the fully-supported British infantry advancing across the treacherous Odon…
