Description

Firefight is a World War II real-time simulation game with more AI and attention to detail than any other game in its genre to date. Tanks are modelled with a physics engine and have gears, rev counters and speedos, and steer themselves with brake levers to give them realistic looking tracked vehicle movement. Each bullet, shell or piece of shrapnel is modelled in 3D and ricochets realistically off sloping surfaces. You can see each infantryman's rank, name, weapon, ammunition remaining, heart rate and fatigue levels. Machine gunners will call for ammunition when they're running low and other squad members will rush over with spare ammo if they are carrying any. Wounded men call for medics who will sprint over to administer first aid. Off-board artillery can be called in but will have to fire several ranging shots before the full 8 gun battery opens fire simultaneously.

Play either against the sophisticated built-in AI, or play a local network game against a friend using WiFi or Bluetooth.

Very nice basic WWII tactics game

Please add the possibility to play as a defender, otherwise quite enjoyable.

Very easy difficulty level

This is a very nice, lite-tactics game. Nicely drawn maps, easy gameplay. All of the scenarios have the player as attacker; so no defense battles in the game.

The main gripe is that the game is very easy; I´m not sure if it is even possible to lose a battle - I tried very hard to kill my tanks, used artillery against my own troops etc, but still I won the battle. My rating was zero stars (out of three), but still I won the fight.

You win a fight by capturing a certain area on the map (it changes per scenario even in fights that are fought on the same map), and your rating is based on how much losses your troops suffer, compared to the strength of the enemy.
