By morning, more of the squad has managed to find one another, including Corporal Hartsock, who Mac delegates to Baker to clear an important road leading to Utah Beach.

Baker is thrown from the plane, although losing his kit in the drop he manages to land safely. Baker, along with the rest of the squad are preparing to disembark from the C-47, when the plane is hit by anti-aircraft fire. The game then snaps back to the initial jump off, taking place hours before the Normandy Landings. Platoon Sergeant "Mac" is seen trying to resuscitate Baker before fading into unconsciousness. An unhinged Leggett is seen firing his Colt 45 pistol at the tank, only for him to be instantly killed by another shot.

The game starts the player, Sergeant Matt Baker of the 502nd Infantry Regiment at the climax of the Battle of Bloody Gulch. The game is based on the historical Mission Albany, in which the player has to complete true-to-life missions of the 101st. Plotīrothers in Arms is based on the true story of the 502nd Parachute Infantry Regiment of the famed 101st Airborne Division who were dropped behind German lines on D-Day. The relative lack of accuracy is designed to simulate the difficulty in hitting targets in a combat situation as well as forcing the player to use team members to engage enemy units and provide better tactical opportunities. Instead of having almost perfect accuracy with weapons in games like Call of Duty and Medal of Honor, Brothers in Arms models weapons with erratic accuracy, and enemy fire can interfere with a player's aim to simulate the effects of suppressive fire. The focus on team command is emphasized by providing the player with an inaccurate aim. The game stresses at multiple points the effectiveness of fire and maneuver tactics, known as the Four Fs actually used by the military during World War II, expressed in the game tutorial as "Find, Fix, Flank, Finish" describing the steps in suppressing and flanking an enemy. Teams and tanks can be ordered to move, lay suppressive fire, rally, find cover, and charge the enemy. The player can also man the pintle-mounted M1919 Browning machine gun on the tank for additional suppression.īrothers in Arms is notable for its intuitive command system.
