Steel Soldiers was a very different game. The original is faster and a lot more chaotic, so it might surprise you. Worth a try on a free evening.

The cutscenes were a big deal back then. Half the fun of finishing a level was seeing what Allan and Brad would get up to next. I made several small cutscenes i nthe same style in the game

Right now it has three of the classic levels, each rebuilt in a lot of detail, and more are coming in the next updates. Thanks for the heads up on how the page reads. There are about 2-3 hours of gameplay inside already!

So true. Lose one flag and suddenly the whole map turns against you. That is what made it so tense.

Ha, fair enough. It was a very different kind of RTS, fast and a bit chaotic. Maybe a good excuse to find out if you still like it.
