Broken Lines - Mastering the Game!
A new year - a new trailer, this time were focusing on the games story! [previewyoutube=xcP8_pH4VTA;full][/previewyoutube]
Last week, our game tip segment spoke about movement and how the soldiers under your command are aware of their surroundings. This week, we are expanding on this by looking at who they target if multiple enemies are in range. When multiple enemies are in range, the solider will make a decision on who to engage. The most important factors are the probability of hitting the enemy and how far the enemy is. After that, there are other factors that can come into play such as the type of weapon the enemy is using (heavy weapons will draw more attention), if the target is shooting at the solider, and how much the solider would need to turn to face their opponent.

The squad has crash-landed behind enemy lines, in the heart of Eastern Europe. With no officers, no leaders, and no intel, they must find an unbreakable resolve if they are to survive.
But with only their training and instincts to guide them, survival becomes a difficult goal. First of all, they need to learn to work together to have any hope of coping with the challenges ahead.
Each survivor has their own views on what to do, and their own principles on what is acceptable. Some want to investigate what caused their crash, others want to stay low and avoid detection by the enemy. There are even whispers of desertion.
It is your task to be the unseeing hand that will guide this ragtag group of soldiers through their struggles. Make your decisions wisely, for they will have real consequences on the fates of the survivors.
- Tactical RPG with diverse characters. Experience the story through the eyes of each soldier as they fight for survival in an alternative WW2 setting.
- Turn-based planning with simultaneous execution (WeGo turn-based gameplay)
- Authentic tactical choices: suppression, destructible cover, realistic ballistics, and camouflage are at your disposal.
- Rogue-like campaign structured with different narrative paths, resources, and permadeath.
- A challenge for even the most experienced gamer. A far-reaching moral system means that the soldiers may desert at any moment if you prove to be incompetent.
- An emotional story, tense atmosphere, and multiple endings based on the decisions that you make.
“Victory at all costs, victory in spite of all terror, victory however long and hard the road may
be; for without victory, there is no survival.”
― Winston Churchill
