Cool

Wow! Thanks for this, guys!
This game is amazing! Although I think I spent too much time on the character creation... And made me wish other games had the same creation system!

I only find the gameplay kind of whacky!

Cheers!

Cause I've seen more sources that say it's a strategy than those that say it's an RPG. Though the truth should be somewhere at the middle. Too bad I can't select both genres like on moby. I haven't played the game so I can't tell for sure. But if you think it's an RPG (aka you played it and think so) than I guess we can change it.

Looks a bit like Jagged Alliance meets Megatraveller.

Which is okay in my book.

Default A blast from the past

One of my favorite games. The number of hours I killed on this thing is inexcusable. Unfortunately, there's a game killing glitch towards the end IIRC. Seemed to me at some point when you try to get Baron Czarny, the game just crashes.

The character creation is the highlight of this game. The 1st person vehicle sequence are the low points. And even lower is encountering a tank in the tactical portion. It spells certain death as you can't really hide nor run away from it's "never miss" machine guns. Some of the best times, I have to admit, were trying to fight a tank with a Humvee in the driving sequence...the porpoise attack never did work. Oh, how I wished for a remake of this one. It's a lot like Jagged Alliance and somewhat sandboxy (I think missions were randomly generated).

There's a reason it looks a bit like MegaTraveller, the people who made the original Traveller/MegaTraveller(The PnP RPGs) also made the original Twilight 2000(The PnP RPG), called Game Designers' Workshop.

Hence why the character creation systems are so extremely similar
