Not-So-Fun war games

Dont forget the Antoine of Burgundy mode where, if you manage to make past the english longbows, you get captured and then executed by the english when they mistake you for a common soldier.

oops, never noticed the date of the posts and never read down to the end of the thread before posting. my bad.

Also a very boring game, seeing as the German invasion of Poland wasn’t until 1939.

For all that want, the ultimate war sim.

I wish this one weren’t so true:

War between the worlds, Mars is colonized and forms it’s own ‘country’ which has declared war on earth, your mission is to fly a spaceship to mars, drop 6 bombs then return to earth - all in real time using conventional rockets.

Expansion pack allows you to play the Martians, which have the ability, due to the lower gravity well, to drop 10 bombs during a run.

Consider the alternative.

Fall Out Boy–be born just outside the blast radius of an exploding nuclear weapon, and spend years figuring out how to cope with your horrifying defects, disfigurements and derangements! Don’t miss the Agent Orange expansion pack!

FPS: Life on the High Seas Real-time patrol with the men and women of the Royal Navy’s elite Fisheries Protection Squadron. Take the helm of a Castle Class Patrol Vessel and feel the excitement as you chase down those Spanish trawlers on suspicion of breaching their EU quota!
Hose of the Gods Hold on tight as you take the captain’s seat in one the RAF’s most important aircraft, the VC-10 tanker. Skillfully hold station as the battle rages below. Experience the endless hours of fun as you listen to radar operators guide Nimrod MR2 and countless combat aircraft into and out of the theatre of operations.

Yomp! The year is 1982, the place is San Carlos, East Falklands. Your mission is to carry your 80lbs of equipment 56 miles on foot in three days across some of the most challenging terrain. And most importantly arrive battle-ready! Experience the thrill of traversing a island in the dark without nightvision equipment or satelitte navigation! Sequel to Exocet!: Atlantic Conveyor.

**Cuban Missle Crisis: Khrushchev’s Call- ** If the Nukes fall, you lose. If the US invades Cuba, you lose. If you withdraw the missles, you lose. Average gameplay: 5 minutes.

Ha ha, I started reading this and went “Jeez, there are an awful lot of guests responding to this one.”

Mission: Nanking You are the Chinese garrison commander of Nanking, charged with defending the city against the Japanese Army with a very large but unarmed horde of civilians, women and children. While the Japanese Army has been sent on this mission specifically to harden them up by making them kill many, many unarmed civilians, women and children. You’ll have your work cut out for you!

See, I would totally play this. This game sounds AWESOME.

I’d play it if I didn’t live in an apartment complex. My landlord probably doesn’t want me punching holes in the walls.

Total Defeat. You are the last Marshal appointed during the last eight weeks of the war after your predecessors have been ordered shot by the crazed Supreme Leader. You are expected to undo three years of enemy advances with an army of starving old men and boys, now that shells are falling on your nation’s capital . Try to figure out which member of the enemy coalition to surrender to while preparing your defense strategy for when you’re put on trial for government policies you never authored. All the while avoiding being executed by the Supreme Leader’s fanatical suicide enforcers.

Auschwitz: the Adventure

A first person starvation simulator – watch your flesh disappear and your bones begin to protrude as you shovel your co-prisoners into ovens in exchange for a slice of bread and a thimble of beet soup. If you’re clever, you can extend your life by catching rats, eating lice and bugs, and stealing from others.
