About :

Burden of Command is a unique WWII tactical game that blends real-time strategy with role-playing elements, focusing on the psychological and moral toll of leadership. You command Dog Company, 1st Battalion, 28th Infantry Regiment of the US Army's 'Big Red One' division.

Step into the boots of a newly minted U.S. Army Captain and guide your men through the grueling battles of the Mediterranean and European theaters. The core gameplay revolves around decision-making under stress. Every choice affects your men's Cautious-Aggressive rating, their cohesion, and their willingness to follow your orders. This is not just a battle simulation; it’s a narrative RPG driven by authentic military tactics and deeply human consequences. You must manage squad morale, address the traumas of combat, and keep your company functional while facing historically accurate opposition.

Features :

  1. Moral and Psychological Warfare: Manage the stress, fear, and resolve of individual soldiers using the unique 'Mind Meter' system.
  2. Authentic Historical Setting: Participate in iconic WWII campaigns from North Africa to the Siegfried Line, based on real operational reports.
  3. Decision-Driven Narrative: Your leadership style (heroic, cautious, reckless) permanently impacts the roster and progression of Dog Company.
  4. Tactical Depth: Utilize cover, suppression, spotting mechanics, and coordinate fire support in turn-based, hex-based combat.
  5. Legacy System: The choices you make determine whether your commander is remembered as a savior or a butcher.
  6. High Replayability: Multiple paths and outcomes based on performance, minimizing linear gameplay.

  • The morale system is revolutionary. Losing a battle feels personal because you see the psychological consequences on your men. Highly recommended for history buffs.
  • It's a niche game done right. If you want a strategy game where managing the human element is more important than just clicking units, this is it. Fantastic tactical challenge.
  • This game nails the 'burden' aspect. I felt genuine stress making critical decisions under fire. Excellent blend of RPG and strategy.
  • A meticulously researched war simulation. The attention to detail on equipment and historical context is superb. A must-play for serious wargamers.
