Oh. My. God. I LOVED that game! I played Breach 1 and Breach 3 to DEATH! I had totally forgotten about it, until now. No, they dont make them like that anymore, XCOM came close, but just wasnt the same. I liked the variety of objectives available, such as insert or extract, hold objectives, retrieve items, etc.

I had NO IDEA that it integrated with a larger scale game. I feel robbed that I didnt get to play it that way.

That is one of the earliest and best TB wargames I have played, and probably the best squad based shooter. During the same era, I was playing a 4x space game called Celestial Ceasars on the ST. Prior to that, there was MULE on the Atari 400 (upgraded to 8K!), and that was probably the first. unless you want to count Whumpus Hunter, which loaded off a tape.

So many great old games, that would be so easy to recreate and expand on. So much effort wasted on crap that is expected to have market appeal.
