Player Support
| From the Nazi invasion of Poland, through the heroic defense of tiny
Finland against the Russian behemoth, the blitzkrieg conquests of Norway and the Low
Countries, the Battle of France, and the seizure of Greece the player is struck by the
despair of men and nations alike as seen by the soldiers who vainly sacrificed their lives
against a more powerful aggressor. This is CRESCENDO OF DOOM ... a
gripping game of tactical combat set against the seemingly invincible juggernauts of
war-torn Europe. Setting the scene for the colossal struggle of the titans which
will follow, CRESCENDO OF DOOM is, nonetheless, far more than a simple
prelude to Barbarossa. While further refining the innovations brought forth in its
highly successful predecessors SQUAD LEADER and CROSS OF IRON,
CRESCENDO breaks yet even more ground in the realm of realistic tactical
combat without disturbing the underlying basic simplicity of a universally acclaimed game
system. CRESCENDO is a welcome extension for the SQUAD
LEADER enthusiast even before he contemplates a single new counter. |
| But CRESCENDO OF DOOM offers far more than that.
Complete armor, ordnance, and infantry units are provided for Poland, Belgium, Finland,
and a host of other minor neutrals including Elite, Line and Reservist formations for all
nationalities. In graphic detail far superior to any narrative account, you will see
for yourself how the outnumbered German panzers defeated the superior armor of the French
tanks. Experience personally the French frustrations brought on by radioless AFVs
and one man turrets. There are no Panthers or T-34s ... here it is the Mk III vs.
the Char B, Somua, or Matilda. |
| And CRESCENDO need not end in 1942 with our 32nd
scenario. The entire British Order of Battle is presented for the whole of WWII
enabling fans of the Western Desert, Italian, or Normandy campaigns to design their own
scenarios for those periods. CRESCENDO OF DOOM is more than just a
game. When combined with SQUAD LEADER and CROSS OF IRON,
it provides the ultimate in a tactical gaming system which can be used to portray any
company or battalion level action. Be forewarned! CRESCENDO
is not an easy game. Do not attempt it unless you have first mastered SQUAD
LEADER and CROSS OF IRON. |
