Inspired by an original online game concept devised by the BBC, the game has more than 30 battles in a range of theatres of war from the North African desert through D-Day to the to the snowy Ardenne mountains where the Allies battled to repel the final German offensive.
 
The team at Slitherine worked with Professor John Buckley, Military Historian at the University of Wolverhampton and a keen wargamer himself, to make sure that the strategy, tactics, scenarios and available firepower of the battles fought in WW2 were turned into realistic AI behavior, powering expertly crafted battles.

No surprise here

Of course it is in the top 10, and well earned too.

The iPad has been an annoyingly successful device, it's all over the place. Tablets are not a flash in the pan, not a fad.

And Battle Academy is a game well suited to the tablet market as I see it. Not complicated or demanding as a program and thus easy enough and approachable enough to generate interest from the non hard core. Yet the game itself is no cakewalk as a wargame. Just because it is easy to run it, doesn't mean any of those of us playing it are going to hand you your wins on a platter
