History Line and some other games
The reason why I bought this collection was History Line. which is unique and challanging. I had this game on Amiga, which took 7 floppies (!), and required a lot of swapping if you wanted to enjoy animations. But game was addicting with it's "one-more-turn syndrome". However each missions can take a lot of time. Do not be suprised if you realize that you are playing this game for a week, and you are still during 3th or 4th mission. Besides, AI is not stupid - it punishes your mistakes, and can use any advantage like terrrain od distance. Thus you should carefuly plan your moves. It is more like chess, but on hex board. Game is also pretty simple to learn. It also can give you some nice historical lessons about 1st WW, which is also quite rare topic in games even today. For example - some units will be available later, like Mark 1-IV tanks or planes. One thing can annoy you - controls are bit clunky, because it was made for joystick, and mouse is actually acting like joystick ;)
Is this helpful to you?
