Talonsoft, Inc. was a Baltimore, Maryland-based computer game developer founded in 1995 by Jim Rose and John Davidson. The company specialized in wargames; many of its releases were acclaimed within the wargaming community.
TalonSoft was acquired by Take-Two Interactive in early 2000, and operated as a brand of Take-Two until it was shut down in 2005. In October 2005, Matrix Games acquired the publication rights to most of the TalonSoft catalog, including the Battleground, Campaign, and Operational Art of War series.
