Cannon Fodder 2
released on Dec 31, 1994
Cannon Fodder 2 is a military-themed action game with strategy and shoot 'em up elements. The player controls a small squad of up to four soldiers. These soldiers are armed with machine guns which kill enemy infantry with a single round. The player's troops are similarly fragile, and while they possess superior fire-power at the game's outset the enemy infantry becomes more powerful as the game progresses. As well as foot soldiers, the antagonists include vehicles and missile-armed turrets. The player must also destroy buildings which spawn enemy soldiers. For these targets, which are invulnerable to machine gun fire, the player must utilise secondary, explosive weaponry: grenades and rockets

Improved and dumbed down on the original in a lot of ways. The levels have more substance and adds a fair amount of new content and difficulty, but the load times were abhorrent and the mouse controls felt worse for me somehow. I'd say stick with the original if you were looking forward to playing this.
