The problem with windows game in the scene is that nearly no one likes windows at all, so the windows games themselves get a poor review. However, I did look at this game, and a few members and I argued it out as to whether or not to put this game out. After playing this one my 486/50DX2 (Windows 3.1), (my other machine is running Windows 3.0 so I could not install it) I found it to be a pretty decent game. I snagged the scenario builders, which works with both the Windows and DOS versions.. so if you have picked up this game, and have enough credits to leech the scenario disk, then I think it is worth taking a look at. The Doc Check appeared right after the installation was complete, (when you were supposed to configure the econfig.exe). Nice quick crack by Codebreaker, he has done over 5+ trainer for us in 1 month, and now a good job on the crack.. way to go CBreaker! "Challenge your leadership and tactical skills in this addictive wargame of expansion and conquest. Infantry, armor, fighters, bombers, troop transports, destroyers, subs, cruisers, battle ships, and aircraft carriers are yours to command as you encounter and overcome your opponents. Test your tactics and abilities with custom created worlds and opponents." The game allows you to have 1-6 Human players, and is somewhat like risk. There is a complete scenario editor which allows you to select everything from the level difficulty to pre-built scenarios which are included in the game. (The scenario expansion disk is what builds on this feature). It also has the features of modem play.. which is the reason why I think this game.
