I wouldn't miss the lack of animation, only the black and white WW 2 footage from close combat 3 and 2 with the narrators saying, "The Russian front ignites on June 6th 1941. Germany unleashes a blitzkrieg (lighining war) against russia. Whole Entire russian army groups are encircled and captured..etc." Close combat 2 had the most. I loved the encyclopedia with weapon descriptions and stats and a small video of the weapon or vehicle in use.
In August of 2004, Zappi, Homba, Bambam887, RedScorpion and MOOXE all pitched
in to create this Close Combat site. I would to thank all the people who have visited
and found this site to thier liking. I hope you had time to check out some
of the great Close Combat mods and our forums. I'd also like to thank
all the members of our volunteer staff that have helped over
the years, and all our users that contributed to this site!
