Command Modern Operations

Command Modern Operations

The first release of Command rocked the foundations of modern PC wargaming, steamrolled its way into the Pentagon and won numerous “Wargame Of The Year” awards. Now, the restless rascals at WarfareSims are back at it with a vengeance! The already legendary game of modern cross-domain operations returns with an all-new UI, even more refined simulation mechanics and a host of new features and content to engross you into the challenges of warfare post-WW2 and in the 21st century. Are you ready? Are you up to it?

No man, and no armed service, is an island. Aircraft, ships, submarines, ground forces and installations, satellites and even strategic weapons are at your disposal. You are given the forces and their hardware; but you have to direct them wisely.

You asked for a faster, smoother earth-globe interface with richer, even more detailed map layers – and you got it! Over half a terabyte’s worth of satellite imagery and terrain elevation combine to deliver an unprecedentedly crisp battlefield for your forces to roam.

Command’s new slick, dark-themed UI slams you right into the seat of a modern-day military command center and never lets go. Play in desktop-standard window or gamelike full-screen mode. Arrange your secondary info windows just how you like them – or park them into extra monitors. Customize your map and info windows to perfection to suit your play style.

Korea. Colonial wars. Vietnam. Middle East. Cuba. Falklands. Iran-Iraq. World War 3. Desert Storm. India & Pakistan. The Arctic circle. Past and future conflicts in the Pacific, Norwegian Sea, Russian & Chinese periphery and more. Experience conflict from post-WW2 all the way to 2020+ and beyond, in more than 600 official and community scenarios. Test your mettle against lethal land-based missile batteries, air regiments, naval fleets or pirate groups. Face off against threats of the past, present and future. How do you measure up against the challenges of modern warfare?

Command Modern Operations Review

If you want to understand how real military operations work, then this strategic simulation is one of the best ways to learn it. It is even used for real military training purposes. I was not able to learn as much from documentary videos or books about modern operations as I have learnt from the missions and descriptions in this game. Even when you are only playing the tutorial missions you will find a lot of interesting information about how real operations work.

Also the huge in-game database for the different weapon, aircraft, and ground unit types give you some comprehensive and helpful information like about their performance, their purpose, their spotting signatures and their abilities, which is a good addition to free sources like Wikipedia, if you are interested in the military equipment of countries all over the world since WW 2.

Personally I am very interested in modern military because I am a big fan of the Digital Flight Simulator (DCS), which is why I also learned to love Command Modern Operations. There are some performance and UI issues, but it is not a big deal once you get a hang on it. Since there are not many realistic military strategy simulators out there, you should really try this out, if you are interested in this genre.
