Battle Ground

About this game

Battle Ground is an obscure early release from MVP Software, who would go on to be a popular developer/publisher of shareware in the early 90s. This game, developed by Keith Laverty and Amar Gopal, is a CGA mode WW2 battle simulator between soldiers from the two sides. You need to select your troops, move them around, assign them to fire their weapons, call in an air strike, etc. Battle Ground is a DOS-based military strategy and action game that puts players in command of troops in intense, tactical battles. Combining real-time strategy with elements of direct combat control, the game challenges players to outmaneuver enemy forces, manage resources, and secure victory in a variety of war-torn environments. Features: Real-Time Strategy Gameplay: Players command units across the battlefield, deploying infantry, tanks, and artillery to achieve tactical dominance. Strategy and positioning are critical to overcoming enemy forces. Unit Variety: Battle Ground offers a range of military units, each with specific strengths and weaknesses. Balance your forces by combining light and heavy units to counter enemy tactics. Resource Management: Capture key areas on the map to generate resources needed to build units and fortify defenses. Managing these resources effectively can make or break your campaign. Dynamic Battlefields: Engage in combat across diverse terrains such as forests, deserts, and urban environments. Each terrain type introduces unique strategic considerations, from choke points to cover opportunities. Direct Combat Control: While primarily a strategy game, Battle Ground also allows players to take direct control of certain units for a more action-oriented gameplay experience, letting you personally influence the tide of battle. Challenging AI Opponents: The game’s AI adapts to your strategies, providing a formidable challenge that keeps each battle fresh and engaging. Mission Variety: Play through a campaign with multiple missions, ranging from defending your base against overwhelming odds to launching full-scale offensives on enemy positions. Each mission presents unique objectives and challenges.
