kraze Posted January 28, 2017 Share Posted January 28, 2017 (edited) https://www.rockpapershotgun.com/2017/01/27/the-flare-path-sequel-this-please/ Check this out, it's a game (mostly) done by one of Battlefront's founders no less. I can say that after reading this and trying the game - its mechanics hooked me up. Because it plays like Combat Mission, except with those things we don't have in these games - combat planes. There's a simultaneous turn-based system and you give orders in advance and then see how it plays out - and since right now I'm playing stuff like Falcon BMS - those orders I give out do make sense and bring predictable results. Not to mention that you are giving those orders using a UI flightstick and a throttle too which looked weird on screenshots but gives a nice sense of interactivity. But the game does show its age. A modern sequel of this using CM engine at least would be really cool. Edited January 28, 2017 by kraze 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rocketman Posted January 28, 2017 Share Posted January 28, 2017 (edited) It was the first pc war game I got hooked on. I would buy a sequel in the same vein in an instant. Edited January 28, 2017 by rocketman 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
