Has anyone played this game? I loved the older Combat Mission games but have not looked at this one yet. Just wondering what others thought? I for one love the game mechanics (plot move, hit play and watch everything transpire for 1 minute. Once done, repeat etc.)

I picked it up a few months back for $20. The mechanics are pretty much what you would expect from the previous Combat Mission with the exception that you can play in real time, which I came to enjoy since you can pause the action at anytime and set new commands. The developers have been making improvements to the AI and mechanics, outside of the normal bug fixes. With no military background, I am not going to pretend I know anything about the realism of the game. Visually (I play it on a dell 1505 with an x1400 ati (256mb) and 2 gig ram) it looks nice, but will slow down at points when zoomed into a dense area with lots of units.
