Commandos Behind Enemy Lines - Gamers Guide
Commandos Behind Enemy Lines
Commandos: Behind Enemy Lines is a 1998 real-time tactics
video game developed by the Spanish company Pyro Studios and published by Eidos
Interactive. The game sees players take control of a group of six Allied
Commandos, who conduct a range of missions across wartime Europe and Africa,
using small unit tactics. Each mission's objective varies, but ranges from
sabotage, assassination, or rescuing captured allied units, with players having
a full view of a mission's map to plan their strategy and its execution in
advance.
Commandos: Behind Enemy Lines is a real-time tactics game
set in World War II that puts you in command of a small squad of elite
troopers. Send them behind enemy lines on a series of hazardous missions, and
bring them back alive. Clever strategy has never been so furiously
action-packed. Study the enemy's movements, develop a careful plan, synchronize
your men, and launch them on a swift and fierce attack using all your power and
skill.
The game proved to be a commercial success, with global
sales above 1 million units. GameSpot Spain declared it Spain's biggest game
hit of all time by 2002. The game branched out into a series that used the same
system of game mechanics, beginning with an expansion pack entitled Commandos:
Beyond the Call of Duty in 1999, and later with three sequels - Commandos 2:
Men of Courage in 2001, Commandos 3: Destination Berlin in 2003 and Commandos:
Strike Force in 2006.
