Screenshot (big) of the PC Computer Game "Combat Mission Barbarossa to Berlin". You can see two anti-tank guns (dots on the horizon) aiming at the Soviet tank (yellow lines) who transports a squad of infantry. I'm contacting the developers about the use of screenshots in wikipedia but have no answer yet

This is a screenshot of a non-free copyrighted video or computer game, and the copyright for it is most likely held by the company or person that developed the game. It is believed that the use of a limited number of web-resolution screenshots for identification and critical commentary on the computer or video game in question or the copyrighted character(s) or item(s) depicted on the screenshot in question on the English-language Wikipedia, hosted on servers in the United States by the non-profit Wikimedia Foundation, qualifies as fair use under United States copyright law, as such display does not significantly impede the right of the copyright holder to sell the copyrighted material, is not being used to generate profit in this context, and presents ideas that cannot be exhibited otherwise. See Wikipedia:Non-free content. To the uploader: please add a detailed fair use rationale for each use, as described on Wikipedia:Non-free use rationale guideline, as well as the source of the work and copyright information. Note: This tag should not be used for screenshots of free software; use the license tag corresponding to the software's license instead, optionally alongside {{Free screenshot}}.

[edit] Fair use rationale in Combat Mission (computer game series)

It is contended that the use of this image qualifies as fair use in the article Combat Mission (computer game series) because:

• The games publisher has released no such images into the public domain, and a replacement image could not be created that would adequately provide the same information.
• The image is being used for identification purposes in the article on Combat Mission (computer game series).
• Simple prose could not generate the same identification abilities in the context of the above article.
• The image resolution has been significantly decreased from the original, so copies made from it would be of inferior quality
• The use of this image neither detracts from the game nor inhibits its salability in any way.
