Overview
Description

Battles in Normandy is a historically‑accurate turn‑based strategy game that puts players in charge of Allied operations during the 1944 Normandy invasion. The game features a hex‑grid map, realistic unit statistics, and a deep order‑of‑battle system that rewards careful planning. Developed by Strategic Studies Group and published by Matrix Games, the title offers both single‑player scenarios and multiplayer battles, allowing enthusiasts to recreate historic engagements or devise their own tactics against friends.

Galactic Assault: Prisoner of Power puts you in the boots of a supreme commander, letting you control the Khonties, Barbarians, or the Insular Empire. Each faction battles across a sprawling galaxy to eradicate the mysterious race of the Land of the Unknown Fathers. The game blends deep turn‑based tactics with a rich science‑fiction setting, offering both single‑player campaigns and multiplayer skirmishes. Developed by Wargaming.net and published by CyberFront, Virtual Programming, Paradox Interactive, and Akella, it launched on PC and Mac in August 2007.
