I recently re-read the entire Microprose M1Tank Platoon game manual on a long flight. I read it because I recall it had some interesting stuff about Soviet vehicles, ground pressure, tactics, ammo, and so forth and I remembered correctly! The manual was a good read! It's gotten me interested in reinstalling the game and playing it in DosBox, which I haven't done just yet.
In the manual it describes how your platoon is ranked after mandatory retirement after 99 battles. I don't remember if I ever actually made it to 99 battles. It sounds like a WORTHY goal!!!! If you guys need a break from Steel Beasts, try M1 Tank Platoon. I consider it to be the first real computer tank simulation. The absolute 1st realistic portrayal of tank combat on a PC, IMHO.
Who has made it to 99 battles?
Who has has the guts to try?
Post your screenshots here! I will as well....stay tuned!!!
