Quick Facts Industry, Founded ...

Apart from publishing the self-developed Combat Mission series, the company publishes games created by other studios (such as 1C Company), including Strategic Command and Theatre of War series.[1]

History

The company began life as Big Time Software when Charles Moylan and Steve Grammont decided to form an independent game company.[2] They produced the successful and unique Combat Mission: Beyond Overlord to critical acclaim in 1999.[3] The fledgling company utilized an online sales model and published a manifesto on its website pledging dedication to its fanbase.

The company continued to grow as subsequent titles in the CM series were released, and other publishers began to partner with BTS. A name change to battlefront.com, coinciding with the domain name of the official website, followed.
