Firepower is a detailed look at the organization, weapons and equipment, and tactics of many of the world's nations since 1965.
Firepower gives players the opportunity to command squad units in recent or current wars. The destructive capabilities are massive, and the problems of command and control in devising effective tactics are a real challenge for any gamer.
