You'll also explore hedgerows filled with hidden mortar teams and German 88mm guns, which are a menace to your tanks. Some will have you assaulting small towns crawling with German infantry, machine gun nests, and snipers. The game's campaign offers an interesting mix of mission types. The quiet, introspective thoughts that Baker and his squadmates share between missions is a stark contrast to the intense, chaotic battles you'll fight. This is a minor gripe, though, and the game would be unduly difficult if you weren't allowed to lose any squadmates over the course of a mission. There is one thing that breaks the mood of the game, and that's when squadmates who die in the course of your gameplay all of a sudden appear fully healthy in the next mission. These presentational aspects set the mood of the game well, but unfortunately can't be skipped. You'll also watch some in-engine cutscenes before and after missions that not only summarize the previous mission in the context of the war, but also get you personally acquainted with the rest of your squadmates. Every chapter begins with a simple screen and title in stark black letters, narrated somberly by Baker's character. The game's presentation is extremely cinematic, borrowing cues from popular World War II fare such as Band of Brothers. As you beat each mission, you'll unlock extras, such as photographs and reconnaissance photos, which show you how closely the game's levels match what Baker's platoon fought through in the critical first days of the invasion. Each chapter and all the settings are based closely on actual missions carried out by Baker's platoon. You'll start out the night before D-Day, when you and the rest of the division parachute behind enemy lines into France, fighting your way into and capturing the town of Carentan. The game's 17-chapter campaign stretches over a week's time. Matt Baker, a real-life member of the 101st Airborne Division.

When we first heard about Brothers in Arms: Road to Hill 30, a small voice inside our heads said cynically, "Just what the world needs.another World War II-based first-person shooter." Sure, it has some squad command mechanics, but it wasn't lost on us that those design aspects were rather similar to another military game, Full Spectrum Warrior.
