Commandos

Behind enemy lines



Commandos: Behind Enemy Lines is a real-time strategy war game which continues the series intense and addictive tactical combat. Take control of six different commandos, the Marine, Green Beret, Driver, Spy, Sniper, and Sapper, as you attempt to complete a variety of missions spanning across Europe and Northern Africa. Game was released on July 1, 1998. This is first part of a Commandos series.


What makes the titles in this series so interesting is the deep strategy and how you must use the special skills of each commando in order to complete the dangerous and difficult missions. For instance, you may have to send in the Spy to distract a guard as your Green Beret sneaks up to silently kill him with your knife or have the Sniper pick off a German patrol so your Driver can sneak in to steal a tank.


There are only a few slight issues which might turn off some players to Commandos: Behind Enemy Lines. The first slight issue was that there were the occasional path finding problems while driving vehicles, which did cause many huge problems but was slightly annoying at times. The only other issue was that the levels are quite difficult in many cases and can take several hours to figure out. Keeping track of your entire squad can get rather complicated and seem overwhelming sometimes as well.


 Look at this video from first mission:



Commandos: Behind Enemy Lines provides a very challenging and addicting strategy/action experience that will test your tactical skills as well as a bit of your dexterity and timing.


Here is a free Demo if someone wants to try it :)

  19. man, that game was amazing. Too bad the series went downhill. I think commandos 3 was the last one. Anyway, i love strategy games like that. Even the footprints were taken into consideration.
    Too bad they don't make games like that anymore.

  20. This looks a bit like Silent Storm and the old Fallout series. I wonder if this has completely destructible environment like Silent Storm.
