Having proved their knowledge of Military Games with their title Panzer Elite, Wings Simulations now leads us head long into military action in the year 2010: After half a century of military interventions, major countries like the USA and Russia are tired of their role as the "World Police". The consequences of their military actions for their economies, national security and internal ethnic conflicts were becoming too severe and eventually led to the conclusion to tone down their campaigns. Instead more and more countries choose increasingly unconventional warfare by using special secret forces. Military success is no longer made by major countries but by small and highly specialized mercenary troops.

Two maps:

  • Cold Winter (supports jets 16-32 players)
  • Riverside (supports helicopters 16-32 players)

Three game modes:

  • Conquest – A variation of “Capture the Flag,” the goal is to capture all the bases of the opposite team. Once the bases’ flag is captured, it changes color (as the soldier stays near the flag for a short time). Points are deducted from the team with the least amount of bases/flags. Once the team loses all its bases or the timer reaches zero, the game is over.
  • Team Deathmatch – One of the simplest of MP games; teams fight against each other, and hits are counted for each team.
  • Hostage Rescue – One team holds NPC hostages while the other team tries to rescue them and escort them to a target area. If either team eliminates a hostage, they receive a “penalty.”

All equipment:

  • Medi-Kit
  • Engineer Tool-Kit
  • Bomb Kit
  • Commander Kit
  • Sniper Kit
  • Visor (Infra-Red)
  • Visor (Night Vision)
  • Body Armor

Weapons and vehicles:

  • 3 pistols
  • 17 rifle class (machine guns, sniper rifles, grenade launcher, etc)
  • All the grenades (colored smoke, frag, stun)
  • 4 rocket launchers
  • 13 wheeled vehicles (jeeps to APC’s and more!)
  • 6 tracked vehicles (APC’s to main battle tanks)
  • 8 VTOL craft (AH-64D Apache, Ka-50 Hokum, UH-60/-60L BlackHawks, V-22 Osprey, and more)
  • 2 VTOL jet aircraft (Harrier m4 and yak-41)
