Reception
Sector.sk and Peter Zeilstra of Gamer.nl praised the realistic graphics and gameplay, though the latter noted that a tank simulator would always be "dry". However, both publications criticized the lack of multiplayer gameplay. In 2015, PC Gamer contributor Tim Stone described it as one of the 20 best war games in history.
