Somehow I missed this a few weeks back.  It is great to see such cross-game cooperation!



FS is still one of my favorite games of all times.  Well made, fun to play, and the best music ever.   :smitten:

Anybody ever try the PC edition of Breach & Clear?  It looks interesting, too.

Thanks for the link, I missed that thread. 

Seems like tactical turn-based games are becoming very popular again.  Jagged Alliance, Door Kickers, Frozen Synapse, Breach and Clear, and who knows what next.  It is good to see this genre come back so strongly.

I think turn-based strategy games have been making a mainstream comeback in the past few years.

I have played Breach and Clear, but not Frozen Synapse. I finally pulled the trigger on Door Kickers. I definitely prefer door kickers, too. I mean like door kickers is actually the awesome sauce that everyone says it is.

That game sets a bar for playability and technical polish that is rare among published games, let alone a pre access. If you liked SWAT3 or 4, you'll like Door Kickers.

I should point out tho that when loading the game, singing "Door Kick-ers" loudly to sounds of james bond theme  "Gold Fin-ger" helps a LOT.

Just a heads up the Breach and Clear is part of the current Humble Bundle.  Currently $4.78 to unlock/access it...
