The flagship title in the Tactical Studies Series, Point of Attack (POA) is the most comprehensive and detailed combat simulation available on the commercial market.
Partially developed in association with the various branches of the United States military, particularly the United States Air Force Office of Scientific Research, the objective of POA is to provide the highest level of realism and fidelity possible, across the widest spectrum of operations. While, at the same time basing the models firmly on objective and empirical, as opposed to subjective and abstract, data and properties.
It is a one of a kind product: designed for hard-core simulation, but still accessible to almost any level of wargamer with an interest in modern warfare.

Point of Attack is a 'game' unlike any other ever available for the civilian market.
It is not for everyone: it is a product designed to accurately model the minute intricacies of modern weapons systems, command and control, Fog of War, and planning to a degree which casual gamers may find cumbersome, even excessive.
POA values 'brutal' realism above all else.
