About this game

Battle Command is a futuristic 3D tank simulation developed by Realtime Games and published by Ocean. As the pilot of a single Mauler assault tank, you must complete ten combat missions against armored vehicles and stationary targets.

The game focuses on arcade-style action rather than the strategic gameplay associated with Carrier Command. Battles are viewed from the tank's forward perspective, with the vehicle rotating left or right to aim its fixed turret across flat environments. Weapon choices vary according to each mission, while a Helicarrier deploys the Mauler and retrieves it after a successful operation.
