Spoils of War
Unveiled on IGN reveals plans for Spoils of War, described as a first-person
shooter/real-time strategy hybrid that's in the works at
East Coast Games (thanks
Frans). Here's a
bit on the game, which is listed as coming soon:
STORYLINE
Decades from now and light-years from any galaxy we know today, Ematrants are
poised for the return of the plague that almost eradicated their species -
Humans. Elect to be an Ematrant and defend your world with sorcery and natural
resources or be a Human, equipped with technology and innovation, and fight to
obliterate the alien race.
Two different species... one goal.
Who are you going to lead to victory?
OVERVIEW
Select the role of Battlefield Commander and toggle between managing your team
in RTS and fighting an intense battle as a FPS. Or choose one of three other
roles and enjoy extraordinary first-person combat as you experience character
growth. "Spoils of War" skillfully combines the successes of real-time strategy
and first-person shooter to create intense warfare and player depth that is
unparalleled. As Battlefield Commander, switch between RTS and FPS modes to
manage your team's economy and technology while leading your fellow human
players to victory. As one of three first-person characters you will commandeer
vehicles, become skillful with weaponry, and use unique powers in a high
velocity war.
