[quote name="Mischief Maker"]It's like Jagged Alliance meets FTL in an Indiana Jones-esque setting. Grid-based tactical combat with a heavy emphasis on cover and flanking because any attack from an unobstructed angle has a 100% hit chance. Battlefields are mostly randomly generated. I'm really enjoying it so far, but what <I>might</I> spoil it later on is the persistent character advancement. You keep all your XP and equipment between runs, including loose items so for example you can pick up a really nice shotgun that none of your dudes can use but after you die or when the mission ends you can give that shotgun to a guy who was on the sidelines. It's not bothering me now but it might fuck things up. It's way more of a system hog than you'd expect because it has this fancy voxel-based lighting and shadow system that's pretty nifty to watch when you're resting at a location and the sun rises and sets in fast forward. And you get to brain Nazis with U-locks![/quote]
