I was bored, sitting at bed at midnight last night unable to sleep, so I thought of some videogames I had played earlier.
One, in particular, TimeSplitters 2, by some company I can't remember right now, is quite good.
In it, this race of aliens called Time Splitters find out how to mess around with time, and they decided to mess up Earth's history, from the Siberian Dam, to the Aztec Jungles, and all the way to the future space station.
Well, you get to hurtle through time gathering these crystals that power whatever the splitters use to time travel. Eventualy, you defeat them.
Some of your might have heard of teh sequel, Time Splitters: Future Perfect, but for this game, the time period is bewteen the second and third game's timelines. (Fractured as they are.)
the last level in TS2 takes place either 2807 or 2087, but for all purposes, we'll use 2807, it's now 2827. twenty years later, and the splitters have returned. Due to their last attack, technology suffered, and only stolen splitter weapons have been used lately, but older wepons remain. Now that earth knew the splitter threat, from the moment they came back, the human race actualy united to defeat their commmon foe.
So here's the fun part, soldier, enough of the kiddie lessons. You've been enroled in Officer school, and that puts you up for a squad leader position. In our army we follow the chain of command, listed here:
(Please correct any glaring errors)
Commander
Force Leader
division Leader (600- 1500)
platoon Leader (300)
batalion Leader (60)
squad Leader (20)
a squad is made of 10-20 people, amd a btalion is three squads, then five batalions for a platoon. A division is anywhere from 2-5 Batallions. A force commands all kinds of thinsg below him. A commander commands the Force Leaders.
Anyways, for the actual game rules:
You have a spot in the chain of command. You must follow orders from your supierors and hopefully kill the splitter threat.
You start with a SBP90 Machine Gun or a sniper rifle.
Officers can also carry a SciFi handgun sidearm.
You are considered to have enough strength to force open doors, lift objects up to 100 pounds without help and still be able to walk.
Weapons, armor and the like may be taken from enemies.
For weapons, most weapons seem laughable compared to todays, but realize the splitters destroyed many wepons when the tried to take earth the second time.
