About this game

Iron Cross is a strategy wargame set in France during World War II, combining real-time and turn-based gameplay. Players create a character and choose to play either side across one of 12 pre-made scenarios.

Performance affects military rank: success can lead to promotion and access to more units, while failure may result in demotion and fewer units under command. The game uses top-down 2D SVGA sprites and includes historical commentary for each scenario, along with a scenario editor.
