gameplay in the many scenarios, multiplayer, and scenario editor. Score
another on for the little guy." -- Bruce Geryk |

"...this simulation -- one turned down by the oh-so-foolish
big-boy publishers -- does what nothing from the major publishers
has done well, and represents much of modern tank combat in a way that
causes you to go, "Wow!" ... even as you're getting
pummeled." --Scott Udell |

"Simulating the gamut of modern tactical command--from turret
commander to battalion commander--Steel Beasts is imperative gaming for
