Details include 500 regions and 90 cities spanning parts of northern Africa and Eurpoe with 45 different countries competing for dominace while different terrain types and weather conditions mean a chaotic and ever changing battle field. Newbies don't have to stay away however since there will be tutorials and tool tips to get you up to snuff and soon the proud owner of your own little empire. I've always wanted to roll into the Balkans with tanks and quell all the violence with an iron fisted rule. Ah, only in video games.

STORM - Frontline Nation is an epic turn-based strategy game situated
in modern day Europe and North Africa.
Use US or European military forces in research and covert operations
to succeed. Superior tactics decide who
remain on the battlefield and the players have to master both modern
warfare and deceptive diplomacy to
turn their countries into the Frontline Nation.



With a strategic map covering more than 500 regions and 90 cities all
over Europe and North Africa players
are in for a highly interesting campaign. As a player there are a
total of 45 playable countries to choose from
and no two games will ever play the same due to the highly detailed
and complex nature of the game.



With complexity usually comes a steep learning curve, but STORM –
Frontline Nation mixes hardcore
realism and instant playability making it a rewarding experience for
both serious strategy veterans
and more casual gamers. The STORM – Frontline Nation universe is
immersive and dynamic,
demanding strategies true to life in order to propel YOUR nation to the top.



Once a battle is engaged STORM – Frontline Nation will show its
tactical side giving the player full control
of its military units in a dynamically created hexagon-based battlefield.

Different terrain types combined with a dynamic weather system and a
day-night cycle add up to the number of
tactical possibilities. Again the attention to detail gives deep
immersive experience,
but first time gamers are helped through tutorials and tool tips.



"Even if we normally work with a very different gaming genre, we
recognized the quality and scope of this title at once.
The first time Colossai showed us STORM – Frontline Nation we knew
this title would be interesting to be involved with
and being able to support local developers is of course an added bonus.
We are very exited about the title and hope to see it hit home with
the strategy gamers", says SimBin Marketing Manager Johan Roos.



Robert Lazic commented "Being able to work with SimBin through the
final stages of the development has helped us a lot.
They have the experience and know-how to guide us in the right
direction and they know first hand about the pressure of the final
crunch mode a small development studio goes through when a title is
near release. We are proud to have our first title recognized
by one of the major players in Swedish game development and we can't
wait to see our "baby" released to the world".
