At one point during my extensive first look at turn-based strategy game Classified: France '44, one of the developers stops what he's saying, stands up, and starts drawing tactical diagrams on a whiteboard using official NATO symbology. I walked into that room barely knowing what a Lee Enfield is; I walked out knowing the difference between "enfilade" and "defilade".
All of which is to say, Absolutely Games is serious about military history. Seriously serious. And that's reflected not just in the premise of its debut game, but in its densely layered systems.
