> If a savvy publisher
would support strategy/sim fans, Advanced Daisenryaku (AD) could come over
here as Iron Storm III. You see, a well kept secret is that Iron
Storm was originally published/developed by Sega in Japan. After
acquiring the US rights for the game and working (echo) on the localization,
Working Designs released it here. Iron Storm for Saturn is the game
that really turned me on to military simulations.
> AD puts you
in control of either the Axis' or Allies' forces during World War II.
Once you've chosen sides, then you're given a mission with set objectives
which follow history. However, you can change history by winning
or losing certain battles. That's one of the coolest aspects of the
series. Throw in literally hundreds of common and secret weapons
to create the ultimate war simulation.
> Sega will include
more detailed campaigns along with fringe battles to spice things up for
this sequel. You'll use 3D tactical views and maps to plan your attack.
As before, you can watch the amazing battles which are presented in real-time
cinemas. Finally, it's been reported that the game will have a classical
soundtrack, much like the first two (can't wait to hear it).
> AD is for hardcore
import fans only. The menus are in Japanese as is just about everything
else. If you want this game in America, then I suggest you write
Sega. |
