This was part of a software bundle and it absolutely blew my mind. I could only finish the game with the use of a trainer due to a game breaking bug on one of the last levels. This would require some TLC but omg I would buy it in a heart beat if that bug was actually fixed!
The tensest strategy game you could play on DOS.
Sadly, another neglected 40k classic.
A game about swapping between your terminators to plan as far ahead as possible, and make sure you finish your missions.
There isn't another game like this one. It's a mix of FPS, squad command, and top-down strategy game, all rolled into one. There is an intensity of trying to control and command 10 Marines at the same time, and not having enough time to do so because of the 'freeze time' mechanic. AS you play, you earn 'time'. You can then freeze the action, and issue orders using this time, but it drains quickly. Will you have time to give all the orders you need to? before you run out? When do you hit 'unfreeze' and just do it from the FPS view? What do you do when you see a marine has jammed? focus on your current action, or swap to take quick control and clear the jam? Or do you hope he clears it himself in time, knowing an alien monster is tearing towards him, and it WILL kill him. An entirely unique game!
Another really old game. Played this with a mate on teh Amiga 500 years and years ago. A super tense tactical game. ITs super difficulty keeping track of all the marines and incoming blips.
This game was so hard i dreamed about it many times. So hard yet fair and with excellent gamepaly mechanics (tactic view which pause the game and replenish when you play in real time, the squad members who are active but far more efficient when you manage them directly). You had to be everywhere and organize everything the fastest way possible. A Pure forgotten gem.
Well, what to add to these comments.
This remains a game I love to go back and replay, the graphics may have aged compared to today, but the atmosphere of this game cannot be overstated, the sounds and ambiance the designers made for this game, just enhance the rest of audio and sound effects of the Terminators and Genestealers.
And I will freely admit I hesitate to play this game in the early morning, too many memories of "Ambush!" startling me in the early hours of the morning, to do that again.
This games mix of FPS and strategy were far ahead of the curve for the day, and since then many games have taken the format presented here and expanded upon it to deliver games that are slicker but still look to Space Hulk as their grandfather.
Much like watching modern FPS games incorporate more strategic elements and planning with other players and NPCs, it's cool to look back at this game where so much of those elements were first given form.
This game deserves to be preserved and made available to the world once more.
Back in the good old Amiga days, I really enjoyed playing this game. It was incredibly difficult, but it also introduced me to the fantastic tabletop hobby of Warhammer 40,000. If the Emperor wills it, I'd love to master this game one day.

FreelancerEight hundred years prior to the start of our story, bitter conflict divided all of mankind. A handful of colonists struck out on their own to begin anew - far away from the Earth and its turmoil. Several ships were launched with enough equipment and supplies to give the hundreds onboard a fighting chance - but since the area around far-off Sirius had never been surveyed, no one really knew what to expect. What they found was a new frontier of free-flowing natural resources, unexplored territories, great wonders and lurking dangers. Each ship, representing the clusters of people and their earthly place of origin, settled into different parts of the galaxy pre-selected by their ship-board computer to give them the best chance of survival.
Life was hard in the beginning, but over the 800 years the different colonies prospered and expanded their territories, claiming more and more systems for their own. Survival and propagation eventually led to growth and profit as each of the colonies developed specialties and fostered commerce. As the colonies grew and time passed their connections with their roots on Earth dwindled and they lost their memories of the conflicts of the past. Soon their attention was dominated by new, more immediate conflicts. Feelings of lost ancestral connection spurred anachronism in the look of the great cities, and created a somewhat distorted image of each colony's cultural heritage. In the ever-expanding outer edge of the territories, frontier lawlessness prevailed.
The Houses: Each shipboard colony that left Earth carried some memory of its origins in its name. The Liberty carried Americans, The Bretonia flew from The United Kingdom and surrounding territory, The Kusari from Asia, and the Rheinland launched with Germanic cargo.
As each ship settled and colonies began to expand, they knew little about each other and their advancing development. Finally, little by little, the individual colonies found each other and began to set up trade routes to link their systems for commerce and solidarity.
Today, with each colony firmly rooted in its respective corner of the galaxy, the colonies rely heavily on each other for trade and industry but also compete for resources and new territories in the Border Worlds. The colonies mandate member governments in "The New Alliance" within the Sirius sector. To control conflicts, each colony has forged alliances and treaties with others as they have grown. Competition remains fierce, however. Struggles rage for supremacy in business, commerce, resources, power and control. There can be tenuous peace between colonies' political agendas, but the grabs for holdings constantly unsettle the volatile frontier.Our Pick Top Trending Science fiction Sandbox
Black & White 2In the game, the player takes the role of a god called from the void (nothingness) to help those who invoked them. However, the player is not an omnipotent style god, but rather a god who rises and falls with his believers and the player must help develop their nature according to their good or evil desires. The player also has a creature, their physical representation in the world, which takes the form of an anthropomorphic ape, lion, wolf, turtle, cow, or tiger. Its physical manifestation can grow to an immense size, and adopt a good or evil persona separate of the player's. They develop their character as the player rewards or punishes their actions. In addition to the god simulation and city-building elements introduced in the original Black & White, Black & White 2 also features elements of real-time strategy gameplay, with the addition of controllable warfare and fighting units.Top Trending Action Fantasy Comedy Sandbox
