I remember getting this game as shareware and it only gave you 30 turns. Game speaks for it's time, but still run really well. The campaign adds some more interesting scenarios rather than a free for all like the first game. I always keep coming back to this game. One draw back is that you can't start at any level you want. It's best to save right before the end of a mission and make a new save for the next map. Or you could just have one play through at a time :P
Game is pretty good. Best done with mouse and keyboard IMHO but haven't tried with controller yet. planes have different abilities and not everyone of them can have the same loadout. Also, the different Ork klanz are represented with different pilots you can switch between any time. Each one with different bonuses. Each clan has it's main plane colour while also being able to choose any two other colours for your plane and 6 different patterns. Each clan has many different logos to choose from, different weapons have different models (though each upgraded from looks the same as the one before it). You can replay any mission after you have beaten it. Levles have both a large space in the air, and some in door stuff too, can seems small some times, but only at start of missions. I am sad that no one is on multiplayer, at least on GoG. The different maps would be great for multiplayer, which is where I think this game would really shine. It's worth it for the cheap price, good customisation and easy gameplay, fun and okry campaign. Wish we got more Orky stuff.
I was only looking for a cheap game to play for when my internet mucks up. But I have been playing it for about six hours now while also listening to the audio book that came with it. So far I have just about finished the first campaign (not the DLC one) and I am going to go back and play those missions again with different tactics in mind. This game isn't just a mindless rampage game, there are some places where you have to think, even with the larger heavy vehicles, and use the ammo sparingly. Also, the book is great, it gets into the action pretty fast and just keeps on delivering. It's also a bonus to hear the names of the vehicles you can unlock as well as the weapons and how they would be in real life. One of my favourite scenes is where a Mech with a rail gun is stalking three hover tanks, and takes the shot when they are forced to go down a narrow street, he thinks has them but they soon see through his usual trick and thats when things get really interesting. Really digging the world this is set in and great leader may not have been such a bad dictator..weird but true.
