AATF: Reviews!
Bill Macon's review of Air Assault Task Force has been posted at The Wargamer.
Quote:
As a realistic simulation, Air Assault Task Force does a good job allowing the player to progress through the phases of an air assault: the staging plan, the loading plan, the air movement plan, the landing plan, and the ground tactical plan. To be successful, the player needs to think through the tactics for each of these phases and the overall strategy for accomplishing the mission. This is challenging enough by itself, and further complicated over time depending on what the enemy does and how well the player can react. Players are completely free to do whatever they want, and to try new plans to see if they can get better results. That is the beauty of a wargame, and this wargame has what it takes to be interesting and addictive...
In conclusion, Air Assault Task Force is a great wargame. It looks good and plays well right out of the box. After playing around with it for the past couple of weeks, there were no noticeable bugs or technical issues to report... Anyone interested in air assault operations and modern tactical-level combat should definitely consider adding Air Assault Task Force to their collection.
