    I remember liking this game when I was a teen. Picked it up now to see if it's just nostalgia talking, and... it wasn't. This is still a very solid hex-based wargame with intuitive mechanics, decent UI and fun unit upgrade feature. The missions are interesting, and even the story is pretty decent. Points off for godawful voice acting during mission briefings and cutscenes, but oh well. PRO TIP: The game has no…

    I have the original running in wine with no issues. This version current (as of this writing) run in Proton/Linux without crashing whenever you try to promote a unit. On the one hand, this is still a winnable game, but it is really annoying. It begins around mission 5/6, I think as a side effect of the custom mime? I can't recommend the game in the current state. I do love the old SSI 90s games, though.
