Brothers in Arms Franchise

Brothers in Arms is a game franchise comprised of 6 games

A first-person strategy game which puts you in the shoes of the soldiers in World War 2.

The main character from the series, Matt Baker, as he appears in Brothers in Arms Hells Highway
The Brothers in Arms games are a series of extremely authentic games based on World War II. The main focus on gameplay centers around commanding up to 2 different squads, one usually being a fire team, used to suppress the enemy, and an assault team, used to flank the enemy.  A series known for its authenticity, a small amount of firepower can go a long way in eliminating the player, or hostiles. 

Traditionally, World War II games put you in the feet of some near invincible super soldier capable of killing hundreds of enemies alone. In the Brothers in Arms series though, this is not the case. The player must use their squad effectively to flank and destroy the enemy. At various points throughout the series, the player will also gain control of new units, like a tank, mortars, bazooka squads and machine gunners.

Another sizable feature of the series is a focus on story telling. Relationships develop over time, and when a team member dies because of a wrong order, their death is troubling. Giving the player control over the squad puts the burden of their fate on your shoulders.
