Publisher's description of Steel Beasts demo
From Shrapnel Games:Steel Beasts is more than just another modern tank simulation screen shots. This design effort accurately models real-world conditions and tactics in a way that doesn't overwhelm the novice with a zillion key combinations and an over-the-top interface. Beyond the realism and gameplay, this tank sim includes the following added improvements:
- Real-world tank tactics and the means to use them
- M1 and Leopard 2A4 tanks
- Integrated mission and map editors
- Accurate modeling of M1 and Leopard gunnery and the interplay that takes place between the crew members of a tank
- A terrain rendering engine that enables players to read the lay of the land
- Superior AI that frees the player from micromanaging his units
- Sophisticated algorithms that enable real-world tactics to apply
- A powerful 2D map with line-of-sight display that allows meaningful prebattle planning
- Friendly forces not under the player's control can now be part of the battle
- Sophisticated damage modeling, including loss of communications
- Modeled infantry.

Summary: The game is very realistic and this means that you have to practice a lot to get proficient at it. Not for those looking for easy entertainment.
