Distant Guns Key Features
- State of the Art 3d Real Time Game Engine - including multiple, dynamic light sources on properly equipped game systems. Play in full screen or windowed mode at any color depth or screen resolution your computer can support.
- Huge Game World - Individual battles are fought in a 100km x 100km battle space, and you need never worry about falling off the map. If a battle nears the edge of the 3d battle space, the game instantly auto-generates a new one based on satellite data covering the entire Northwest Pacific region. In theory, a battle can last for days and hundreds or thousands of miles.
- Individual Ballistic Resolution - every shell fired is tracked, from 37mm and up, including armor penetration calculations.
