Dogs of War
Overview Battlefield awareness is critical to preserving your forces as you battle through canyon ridges, inch across icy wastelands and penetrate sprawling cites. Combat happens at a frightening pace, jump directly into the action-oriented environment, with no need for resource management. But command wisely, as experienced units are much more valuable and skilled. Multiplayer support for up to eight players via LAN or Internet. Death Match, Capture the Flag, Finders, and All for One. The game takes place in the year 2161, after Earth had colonized Primus IV to exploit the rich deposits of a new element, named SL18. After some skirmishing with scattered indigenous lifeforms, the colonists take hold of Primus IV and begin mining SL18. Fast forward 40 years, the colonists have been consistently used and abused by Earth, as SL18 turned out to be a valuable military grade material. Using their newfound wealth from controlling the only known supply of SL18 in known space, the colonists of Primus IV declare their independence from Earth, hiring an elite mercenary force named the WarMonkeys for the assault they know will come from Earth. As expected, Earth retaliates by sending a contingent of its veteran Imperial Order division to quell the rebellion. And, after 40 years of breeding, the indigenous Mantai emerge from their subterranean lairs to erase humanity from the face of their homeworld. Features Arcade urgency with the command interface required to lead a massed force to victory, delivering highly challenging and addictive gameplay across a breathtaking, dynamic battlefield. Combat happens at a frightening pace, jump directly into the action oriented environment, with no need for resource management. But command wisely, as experienced units are much more valuable and skilled. A force of up to 100 units is yours to control from above, or view the battle from an individual perspective, commanding any unit in a 3rd person over the shoulder angle. Form your squad from over 30 different units like the lumbering Rhinoids or the Sniper, leading them through the fury of battle.
