Wishbone: It looks like an updated version of Laser Squad. I don't know what it actually is, though.

MobiusArcher: Its similar. Their both squad based tactical games. This one is in real time, but you can pause it and give orders wile paused if you want.

Ok, I've spent a hour trying to figure out how is it played, even manual didn't shed much light onto it - but it seems pretty neat. Any interest to teach me how to play demo, trough IRC, or Steam chat or whatever...

Ill give some more hints. This game is the last in the series. It is the only part in the series to appear exclusively for DOS.
And this picture isn't much of a hint, its just amusing.

Im going to bed now. If you guys think i picked something too difficult, you can start a new round or something. I can accept your defeat later, i guess. I will leave you with one last hint though. The previous games in the series appeared on DOS, Amiga, and the Atari ST. This particular game however was only on DOS (as i stated before).

I'm sure I've seen this game before but I'm buggered if I can think of it now.

I think the best way might be to have a look at the play guides from Billy Harris.
Here is part six:

You can find all the earlier parts by following the links in that post. They're quite well written, and pretty informative. If you have any questions, just let me know.

Yeah, I've already found that, finished demo a couple of times, and right after turning it off bought the game :D Thank you for links

FenixP: Cool! I'm sure you'll enjoy it, it's a real gem of a game.
Oh, and also, I figured out the name of the current game. It's Breach 3. :-)

Ok, since Mobius is probably still asleep, and the screens he gave us are available at the mobygames link, I'll just assume I won and continue the game.

Correct. I hope it shows up on GoG eventually, because my copy is on disks, and I don't have a disk drive. Absolute classic. :)

What's wrong with Patrician 3??
Posted January 24, 2009
Yup, pretty much unmistakable if you've played it for several years in a row...

Okay. This one should be easy.
