Combat Mission: Afrika Korps Demo

Background on the Game:

Combat Mission: Afrika Korps (CMAK) is a tactical WWII combat simulation set
in a true 3D environment. Players issue orders in turns and then see the
action executed in real-time. It simulates battles in the Mediterranean
theater of operations, including North Africa, Italy and Crete, between 1940
and 1945. From the sweeping deserts of Libya to the mountainous Gothic Line
in Northern Italy to the islands of Crete and Sicily, Combat Mission: Afrika
Korps allows you to recreate some of the most fierce ground battles of World
War Two.

Combat Mission: Afrika Korps (CMAK for short) allows the player to lead the
soldiers of ten nationalities (USA, Germany, Italy, Britain, Canada,
Australia, New Zealand, Poland, South Africa and France) into battle, using
historical Tables of Equipment and Organization (TO&E), surroundings, and
combat results. Combat Mission is not a video game. It requires thoughtful
strategy and tactical skill to overcome the enemy while preserving one's own
forces and achieving the mission objectives.

CMAK is the most realistic simulation of ground warfare on the Western Front
made to date, and contains a mind-boggling amount of detail, research and
information - from the organization of the various participating nations to
the unbelievably detailed armor penetration algorithms based on real-world
physics and real-world data, to the realistic 3-D representation of
environment, weather and fog of war.

If you're new to the Combat Mission series (CM for short) don't be scared.
Actual gameplay is easy and you don't need to be a master of WWII tactics (a
so-called "Grognard") to play and win. Use your intuition and think about
what tactics and strategies would work in the real world if you were on the
front line. It's easy to play CM, because CM's "rules" reflect the
real-world "rules" of combat - no need to learn an abstract game system
first.

This demo documentation can only scratch the surface of what the full game
offers, but it will provide you with a basic understanding of the game
concept and the most important functions to start playing and enjoying CMAK.
