Summary

You will fail in this mission. You will die in this mission. But how you die, is what you determine it to be. You and three others must defend a fort in the middle of a desert from an all out attack by air and land. There will be tanks to battle against, there will be snipers to hide from, there will be infantry and special forces to defeat, and there will be enemy choppers bombarding your fort. This is your final stand against the overwhelming attack by the Americans. How would you like to die?

Review by Tyger

Overview

There was an overview, but it just used a BIS picture, and there was no description of the mission. While technically there were no problems, the author could have done a bit better with this part.

Intro

There was not an intro.

Briefing

The briefing had only a little text, but the text was clean, and there were no spelling mistakes. Also, the author included a small but decent gear selection. The briefing, though not very detailed, did its job well, because as the mission description says, you are going to die by overwhelming hordes. You don't need much more to go on.

Mission

I have to say, this mission is fantastic, for such a simple thing. It's one of those addicting arcade-style Beachhead2000 type games, but its still fun. I think I died about a dozen different ways in the small fort that I was supposed to defend, and yet I kept hitting retry.

Outro(s)

There was not an outro.

Special

The different style of gameplay that Blacknite introduced. As far as I know it's never been attempted before. Very original.

Overall

Despite the lack of an intro or outro, I liked this mission and the original concept it provided. It's very replayable, and addicting to many I think.
