About S.O.A. 

It’s 2014. 10 years ago, a near apocalypse forced you and a group of military
veterans underground. Now, you emerge to free humanity from its new oppressors.
Controlling a fully-customizable squad of soldiers, you must capture modern
military weapons, including tanks, helicopters and jets and battle the enemy
while protecting your limited resources. Play through 13 missions in this
non-linear campaign, where your choices affect the game’s outcome. 

S.O.A.’s missions require players to think tactically. Use the cover of night
or snow to infiltrate enemy installations, and have your  soldiers crouch
to shoot more accurately. Your soldiers can use any working vehicle in the game,
and you can even call in airstrikes against fortified positions. Use brute
force, or be sneaky, so long as you complete your objectives.  

S.O.A. also offers multiplayer for up to 8 players, using the maps which ship
with the game as well as user-created maps posted on the website. S.O.A. ships
with thedeveloper’s editor used to create the missions and maps for the game
