Combat Leader on the Commodore 64/128 stands out as a pioneering real-time tactical wargame from the legendary Strategic Simulations Inc (SSI). Unlike the heavy turn-based titles typical of the early 1980s, this game challenges players to command squads and armored vehicles in a fast-paced environment where decision-making speed is as vital as long-term strategy. The game features various historical scenarios and an innovative command system that simulates the friction of the battlefield. The C64 version is particularly noteworthy for leveraging the system's sprite-handling capabilities to manage multiple moving units simultaneously, offering a more fluid experience than many contemporary ports. For collectors and retro enthusiasts, Combat Leader represents a crucial evolutionary step in the transition from board games to real-time strategy (RTS). Its status as a foundational SSI title makes it a highly desirable piece for those tracing the roots of modern military simulations.
