Trivia
Development
The concept of
Close Combat had been in the works for a long time. The basic game design already existed as
Project X at the time Atomic Games was working on the
V for Victory games for
Three-Sixty Pacific, Inc., later became
Advanced Squad Leader and
Beyond Squad Leader when
Avalon Hill wanted them to do a
Squad Leader video game, and it was eventually called
Close Combat when Atomic Games teamed up with Microsoft.
