Just been playing the demo game from here.
Combat Mission 3: Afrika Korps - PC game

Overiew here
Combat Mission: Afrika Korps Overview Page

I know Paul has it but just to let other Combat Mission fans know that haven't seen it graphics are even better than CMBB.

Should have bought years ago.
Can't find it on eBay or Play.com will have to look further.

It's excellent mate. I worked up some new scenarios over the winter.

I found a copy on eBay here:

Cheers Paul but I meant in the UK, that one is in Canada.
It would be cheaper for me to get the anthology of all 3 games but I already have CMBO & CMBB.

I have not been able to get CMAK to run on Microsoft Vista, as mentioned elsewhere, although CMBO does.

Ok Owen - hadn't noticed it was in Canada. Keep an eye out. I saw one on eBay for a fiver the other week.

Yeah I had issues with CMBB running on Vista and I believe that CMAK is the same - Ironic that the only game that is able to run on Vista is the oldest!!

A pity that the same team's 'Combat Mission: Shockforce' and 'Theatre of War' seem to have been resounding duds.
