I loved close combat series, i played from game 1 to 5 in 90's and early 2000.
Graphics
Players who bring up Graphics mostly praise it.
19 of 117 sampled reviews raised it
The graphics and gameplay is simple enough to master pretty quickly, yet with enough depth to become a good simulation, simulating morale, cover, etc.
Gameplay
Players who bring up Gameplay mostly praise it.
17 of 117 sampled reviews raised it
I do find that with waypoints the movement has improved a bit and I find nice additions, like the being able to see prisoners as well as killed and wounded in the casualty set up, the new supply and unit mechanics, to be all good.
