Our take on M1 Tank Platoon II
The defining structure is command at platoon scale: four M1A2 Abrams tanks operate within battles where campaign results determine what comes next. Direct vehicle operation, tactical choices, and battlefield support are combined rather than separated into different modes.
What is M1 Tank Platoon II?
M1 Tank Platoon II places the player in command of a four-tank M1A2 Abrams platoon and its crews.
The game combines direct vehicle control with tactical command: players can fire a broad selection of weapons, use thermal imaging to locate enemies, and switch between interior vehicle stations and an exterior 3D camera. Battles can include support from aircraft, helicopters, ground vehicles, and infantry. Modes include randomized single engagements, training at Fort Knox and Fort Irwin, configured battles, and historical or hypothetical conflicts. Campaigns span Gulf War II, North Africa, the Russian Far East, the Balkans, and Central Europe. Strategic performance affects later missions, while battlefield targets may be rebuilt or destroyed by allied forces.
