Fantastic tactical shooter that forces you to take your time and treat the planning stage with proper respect. In theory, anyway, since you can also get away with bum-rushing the objective with a bunch of reserve soldiers, but what's the fun in that? Extremely tense and exciting and does a lot with such simple graphics (which I love in the same way I love System Shock 2's graphics).

The planning screen interface isn't incredibly smooth by today's standards but c'mon, this was 1998, it's pretty damn good as it is and gives you enough tools to get the job done.

Protip: You can speedrun the awful final stealth mission by running the default plan and pressing '/' to let the AI take over, they will get to the security box without being seen before the first AI cycle makes them wait outside your only entrance in for five minutes.
