Close Combat 3 was one of my all-time favorite strategy games. LOVED playing it - though I learned quickly to play as the Germans, load up on MG42 units and press play to win.
US infantry units with the M1/Carbines are woefully inaccurate and can't hit anything. Same with the .30cal MG, etc. The only useful thing the US had were tanks - and those were pretty easy to destroy!
That said, I adored that game. I love the lack of base building and just straight focus on tactics and maneuvering. I keep hoping for a modern update with graphics and the like, but I'm continually disappointed.
