📙 In the late 1980s and early 1990s, there was a subgenre of action games where you would take control of a single vehicle and attack an enemy base, slowly weakening it by destroying its defenses and enemy vehicles protecting it. The most well-known series in this genre are the Strike games, beginning with 'Desert Strike' from 1992. Base attack games would often have a military setting, sometimes with sci-fi elements.
This video series aims to show off a few of these games, often running on the MiSTer hardware emulation platform.
Reichart Kurt von Wolfsheild wrote 'Fire Power' in 1987, and in an interview with Amiga Resource he stated 'I believe in playing games with people, not with computers,' showing a keen interest in developing multiplayer games. The sequel to 'Fire Power', 'Return Fire', came out for the 3DO in 1995, and was ported to PlayStation and Windows the following year. It is based on the same 'capture the flag' mechanics with the same emphasis on multiplayer as 'Fire Power', but expands the playable vehicles with helicopters, jeeps, and armored support vehicles, and adds a bunch of levels.
