"After
our successful cooperation with Independent
Arts
Software during development of the ‘Lula Flipper’,
we
decided to join forces to tackle a larger project",
said
Johannes Friederich, Licensing Director at CDV.

 

"With
‘Warcommander’, we focus on transparent combat
units
and an interesting character class system.
Gameplay
and a high degree of identification with the
game
characters, combined with classic realtime action
compose
the foundation of our concept.
For this
project we have compiled a seasoned and
highly
motivated team that will together with CDV
present
a unique game experience in Fall 2001," said
Holger
Kuchling, Managing Director at Independent
Arts
Software.

 

‘Warcommander’
is a realtime strategy game set in
WWII.
The player follows the story of a 50-man strong
Allied
unit from the landing in Normandy until the
end
of the war.

 

The
game features a detailed isometric view achieving
some
entirely new effects. The game characters behave
very
realistically as regards injuries, and they are
also
able to occupy buildings and use vehicles.
It
is possible to fortify certain positions and erect
simple
shelters. Each character in the game features
his
own personality and develops further during the
game.
Prudent strategy combined with focused use of
the
soldiers is the key to success.

 

Furthermore,
the player can supervise his men’s
positions,
equipment and training between missions.
Various
multiplayer modes for up to 8 players are
also
planned.

 

The
planning stage for "Warcommander" is already
completed.
Global release is intended for Q4 2001.
