Ok I brought up earlier this week about this title wanting to see this game on PSN already, but what exactly is The Unholy War.
STORY & BlabThe Unholy War is a Stratagy/Fighting developed by Toys For Bob for Crystal Dynamics and published by Eidos Interactive released on September 22, 1998, that focuses on a War that takes place on the planet Xsarra between 2 factions.
IF YOU DO NOT WANT TO BE SPOILED DO NOT HIT THE SPOILER TAG.- Spoiler:
The two factions are the "Arcane" which are people & creatures that were all ready living on Xsarra for thousands & thousands of years, and the "Teknos" which are a group of invading Machines & Humanoid that were escaping from a group that was hunting them and happen to land on Xsarra. I'm Not Going to spoil you too much of the story. Figure the rest out by playing the game yourself or spoiling your self elsewhere.
The Factions are:
Arcane
Teknos(Simplifying Spoiler so You Dont Spoil Your Self
)
Game ModesHow The Game Works Is Very Simple And Straightforward.
Two Modes Mayhem & Stratagy and a options menu.
Mayhem is a battle mode which you can put factions vs faction or everyone to vs each other or other combinations. in 1 v 1's on different battle maps.
Stratagy is the story mode. You play one of the factions story lines (You can chose which faction & difficulty the cpu faction will be) The Board is made up of Hexes each with different looking tiles. Those tiles are pretty much maps (water spaces dont count). You get a set number of units and on most maps a base to work with and Cash err Gas (I dunno what to call it without spoiling but ya) The Cash is the first key to any battle & can be used to use a unit power or buy new units to help you dominate the map.
You move about and if you encounter an enemy you fight them in a 1 v 1 Mayhem style Battle on the space Atacked player is standing on. In order to win you pretty much kill everything on the enemy team includeing bases if they have one. (And thats pretty much everything I'm spoil on stratagy again if you want to know more play the game yourself.)
This game goes for 1-2 players. 2 players can fight each in Mayhem or have a battle in wits in Stratagy.
So let me know what you think of this game and discuss about it here. Questions about this also welcome.
