One tank army.



<span class="bold">Uprising: Join or Die</span>, an action/RTS where you command the most advanced vehicle in the galaxy, is available now DRM-free on GOG.com, with a 25% launch discount.

An alien force strikes the colonized planet Albion in full force. Earth responds by forming a strong military organization that goes after the extraterrestrial aggressors. At least, that's what the army wants you to believe.

Now a power hungry general has usurped and repurposed the terran government, presently known as the Imperium. But the rebels managed to steal the Wraith, a cutting edge combat vehicle which might turn the tide of this civil war, and have trusted you with it. Through your first-person perspective you can allocate resources, claim strategic points on the map, call down buildings, and form entire bases while you seek out and destroy those of the enemy. In Uprising: Join or Die you must act both as a strategic planner and as the spearhead of the rebel forces, wreaking havoc with your upgradeable and conveniently versatile super-vehicle. It seems like an almost unfair advantage but hey, if they didn't know how to fight it, they shouldn't have built it in the first place.



Join the resistance as both a commander and an agent of destruction in <span class="bold">Uprising: Join or Die</span>, DRM-free on GOG.com. The 25% launch discount will last until March 24, 1:59 PM GMT.
Ooh an old school game :)

Can my USB flightstick work with this game?
This seems very similar to Battlezone but never heard about it before. Will definitely get it at some point.
Here is some gameplay:

I do have a question: the GOG version uses Glide graphics?
Hum, where's the second game of the licence ? I have read it has to be released here the same day as this one...
Good to see at least 1 classic release this week. :D

The game looks not too shabby but i think it might be better if it was a plain action game without the strategy part.
Nice! I have the second Uprising game as a retail CD version, I always keep forgetting it also had a predecessor too (which I don't have).
Nice release, I'll definitely pick this up during a sale.
I liked it back in the day, although I think it also got a tad repetitive.

Yes.
Questions for GOG (I'm curious): did you guys have a hand in the technical work, or was it all Retroism's doing? What about Zeus (nGlide)? EDIT: (I assume since it does use Glide, Zeus helped out.)

Congrats on getting the second "troublesome" game here (the first being Revenant), in any case. :) Also I'm surprised it arrived at a discount; normally the classics show up full-priced.

That's my impression as well but I was crap at Battlezone, it's probably the most aggravating and stressful RTS I ever played. I didn't get very far which I hated cause I loved driving around on other planets.
As a collector, I'll get it at some point in a heavy sale. But it's not the kind of old game I'm really into.

What is it? Saitek and Logitech hardware should work with anything all the way back to the beginning of time due to the included software being able to emulate the keyboard etc. Other brands may or may not include such hardware but there may be 3rd party software you can use. This assumes a given game does not directly support the particular hardware of course, but even in cases where games do support hardware sometimes the custom software that comes with the hardware is more configurable too.

Hope this helps.

Well, I was quite bad at it too, especially since you needed to memorize several shortcuts in order to be able to play it. But I did like it very much. Hopefully gog gets the Redux version of Battlezone on release date this spring.
