As per the title.

http://www.armchairgeneral.com/marchtobaghdad

March to Baghdad gives the player two mech companies, one tank company, and a mortar platoon and a scout platoon to command in two scenarios set in Iraq, 2003. It is basically an exclusive demo of ProSim's game engine that powers Air Assault Task Force and other titles.

Hey, the price is right, and if the game feels retro with its bitmapped graphics, it can be seen as a modern combat, higher level, thinking man's Close Combat. Give it a go, it's pretty good, although I think that I am going to replace almost all of the sound effects...

Close Combat isn't a thinking man's game ? Bother, now I have to go home and delete the darn things.

Oh, all right, then. Close Combat IS a thinking man's game. However, I do find that ProSimCo's games need a little more caution and planning (and a LOT more patience with clunky interfaces).
