Produktbeschreibung
Flight Commander 2 is an excellent tactical level air combat simulation. Unlike a flight simulator, FC2 uses a turn-based "board game" format, so you control lots of planes at once from an overhead map view. Each "counter" represents one aircraft, ship, ground target, SAM site, or missile. All the aircraft included in the game are jets, but there is a HUGE assortment available, from the early 1950's to the present and beyond, amounting to about 70 different major types. Counting the multiple versions included of many planes (e.g. F-14A, F-14B, and F-14D), there are actually over 110 types to choose from... With so many plane types included in one game, it would be easy to imagine that they'd start to all feel alike after a while. Thankfully, there are many attributes that are set for each plane beyond the usual thrust-to-weight, top speed, and wing loading numbers, and taken as a whole they give each plane a unique character. All the attributes of each aircraft and missile type are documented in the online data library, along with pictures and brief historical writeups. |
