What is it ? Why would some geek write a whole site about it ? find out here. |
Download Laser Squad. Including all 20 missions for the Speccy version. Wait..20 missions ? you thought there were only 7 didn't you ? Pity the fool. |
Not the carnal type, but games that are descendents of or forefathers of Laser Squad. |
Laser Squad is a turn based strategy war game where the player completes objectives such as rescue or retrieval operations, or simply eliminating all of the enemy, by manoeuvering the squad's team members around a map one at a time, taking actions such as move, turn, shoot, pick up and so on that would use up the unit's Action Points.
By taking advantage of cover, squad level military tactics, and careful use of weaponry, the cunning player could complete their objectives before the other player/computer AI.
More heavily laden units would tire more easily, and need resting or face running out of Action Points more quickly in subsequent turns. Morale also played a factor, a unit witnessing the deaths of all his teammates in short shrift, could panic and run out of the player's control.
