Blast from the past....


It's been a while since I played the old Close Combat games. My last look at the second gamethird game and the fourth game has been a while ago. The original CD's still run/install on modern pc's but I saw the series in a sale on gog.com.  At less than €4.50 per game and with some extra cash off (gog wallet from previous purchases) they were even cheaper so proved hard to pass up. CD's fail and OS's change after all. It's nice to have a version that is 'supported' in some long term way without self help/modding or fooling about.

Moving my old saved game/campaign info under the new versions worked flawlessly.

Some more minor nostalgic gameplay incoming.... As if I needed more distractions from the main games I want to finish....
