Ok, I have some time this weekend, I think I'll download the demo for SC:ET and Combat Mission. You guys are doing a good job at pitching the game.

Ok, so from what I'm hearing, this game is alot more intricate and detailed as far as game mechanics are concerned, but less graphically(which is ok). I am actually looking for something more complicated than PGII, or A+A, so I may purchase this game soon. I don't really want to download the demo, I'm on dial up and 34mb is a bit time consuming. Thanks guys for the quick pitch.

I came across a review for this game on Gamespy, and it was the first I had even seen of it. On the surface, it looks like a Panzer General/ PGII clone, only with less detailed graphics. I still play Panzer General II regularly, but this one caught my attention. I've never heard of Battlefront before and I think it's great that there are some companies making these types of games still. My question is, what advantages does SC:ET have over PGII? Is it a more detailed game in reference to unit statistics and combat resolve? Are the campaigns more detailed and contain more missions than PGII? Is there a detailed glossary describing the various military weapons used in the game? Those are some questions I have, but probably not all, but you can see where I'm going. I'm definetely interested, but I need some people to 'sell me' on the game I guess, because I don't want to spend money on a game that isn't PGII only because the name is different. Also, from what I understand, games made by Battlefront are only available thru online purchase, is that correct? Or can I buy them at Electronics Boutique or some other retail store?
