I vaguely remember playing that one. But the memory is so hazy idek if it's real.

>Deadlock but modern day
Looks great. Shoutout to Deadlock by the way, I really liked that one. Or at least, liked playing around with the editor as a kid and when revisiting it as an adult I had a hard time getting into it because of how much detail management you have to do in every city every turn at least on larger map. I really liked the civilizations and the variety of worlds.

Didn't like that one too much. Always preferred the (objectively superior) prequel: >>1926281
Really weird too because the dev is one of the first that trooned out back in 1992 before it became trendy.

Oh fuck I thought I had imagined this game>>1930507
There were actually two Iron Storm games. Original Iron Storm and World War Zero, the latter being also known as Iron Storm: World War Zero and even just simply Iron Storm. Most people are familiar with the latter, because both are actually the same game, but World War Zero is a heavily simplified, shortened and made much easier version of Iron Storm, to the point where it was the primary Iron Storm release in some countries and in others it was marketed as sort-of "updated definitive edition".
The issue is while old Iron Storm was at times absurdally hard, it was a vastly superior experience.>>1930653
This is just Syrian Warfare 2008.>>1930854
Yeah I remember playing the original version and it was hard to the point where I thought it was glitched because I swear some enemies were literally invincible, at least on some kind of train memory? Memory is really hazy on that one sorry but I sure remember it being a total motherfucker to beat. Didn't know the two games were different though, learn something new every day I guess. I always just assumed WW0 was a different name for the console release of a subtitle I'd somehow forgotten.

Again though: setting was better than the game imo and I really with someone did something with that. Hell, just given how popular Sternberg is in the HOI4 scene thanks to Kaiserreich you'd think someone from that crowd would latch on to the concept.>>1930834
The backstory of things was quite interesting. It's one of the few ones that while it has humans as the usual diplomats you get humans that are still so damn pissed from being attacked and having the Moon blown up that they're willing to drug themselves up in supreme roid rage that will kill themselves to ensure the enemies die.>>1930948
Honestly had no idea the lore ran that deep.>>1931046
There was an document include with the first game that detailed the Skirineen blowing up the moon and getting curbstomped by pissed off humanity. It's also why Humans if they get caught trading with them have huge morale loss.
It also goes into detail the big war between the Humans and their allies the Re'lu against the Cyth and their vassals the, Chch't, the Tarth and the Maug.
It also explains why everyone is trying to conquer the planet in the original game. It was quite detailed.>>1931082
Should read it then. I own the games on GOG, might as well. When I was a kid I just thought it was a reference to humanity having a more media-driven culture. There actually being some lore to it is really cool.
