Steel Division Normandy 44 - The Road Bend from Hell
A beta for Steel Division Normandy 44 is available through Steam.

I blundered an armored vehicle through the sights of an unseen German AT gun (somewhere in the background). Note the armored infantry dismounting on the right.
This real time strategy war game is from the makers of the acclaimed Wargame series. This beta features two maps and the skirmish mode only. Yet, there is a lot of game time in it.

A German scout aircraft passed by and now my men are booked for something bad. Moving out!
The views and the scope of a single skirmish in Steel Division are stunning. Older players like me are encouraged to play at a pace that suits both their desired level of involvement and capacity to process what is going on. For myself, this is at very low speed and zooming into each individual spot where tactical goodies are being spilled.

This aerial view of the area of operations has nothing to envy from those illustrations in Osprey Campaign books.
