Krabat  author1986There are little differences between several releases of this game. The original German versions are only runnable on monochrome monitors, while the French version works with color monitors. The 0.0a version also looks a little bit different in layout from the 1.0 versions.***

FOR THE FEDERATED WORLD’S SPECIAL FORCES

Moving my squad through enemy infested jungle. Suddenly Darrow’s detector picks up life forms 50 metres out.

"Nothing but a couple of BRACHIATORS" he says to me.

Just then Darrow takes it through the chest. We all hit the dirt trying to figure where the shot came from. And there it is... a BATTLE ROBOT. Hsiang shoots its sensory grid but it doesn’t do much good. It starts tracking him with its dual guns and suddenly he takes some hot plasma. Now it’s just me and the Kid Roki.

"Roki" I said, "Direct fire at its lifters so it can’t move." So like a vet of 20 drops he rises on one knee and hits the thing right in the lifters.

"That’s one less Battle Robot", he says.

I toss an energy grenade at the hulk to make sure. Then we turned to start the long job of carrying the boys north to our landing craft.

Breach 2 Impressions (Omnitrend Software)1990An early squad-level tactical combat game, much like the X-Com series of games and the more contemporary Laser Squad. Breach 2 features turn-based combat from an isometric point of view set in the far future. As one of the more unique aspects the squad leaders gain experience from successful missions should they survive.

Breach 2 is set in the same sci-fi universe as Omnitrend's Universe and Rules of Engagement series and shares the same backstory with those games. Breach 2 is a part of the IGS (Interlocking Game System) and compatible with the two Rules of Engagement games. This means you can use Breach 2 to resolve the tactical combat situations, boarding an enemy ship for example, you run into in the starship command simulation, which is the heart and soul of the Rules of Engagement series.

A scenario builder is included with the game, making it possible to create your own missions and trade them.***
