I'm a programmer, so i will be able to do something like a free browser game. Ideally I'd want collab, but if only have ideas, that is fine too.
We will solve everything polls.

It's possible he just told her to do that in advance too. He wanted people to think he was in the area after all.

>>1755217
Except he IS in the area, he appears in the endless mode mission after you finally go down. Willy is confident/delusional enough to appear in person when he thinks it'll have an effect, see the lab scene where he executes Mendo's parents. Or when he was hiding at the edge of the fighting to witness the first ever reverse collapse in 2064.

I don't think he was anywhere near the place until the AU left and his enemies in the local garrison were rooted out. There was no risk in him showing up at that point to troll Jefuty.

that's good, it's a good game and obviously i'm biased but i don't think it's dated even a little bit (nor is act of war for that matter), not even in terms of graphics. if you like it, you can move on to world in conflict which is a progression of the same formula, but set during the cold war.

I've recently finished the orc campaign.
It was pretty good. Quite easy to cheese(at least on normal difficulty) but then again so was Warcraft 2. It still has its bugs like the game crashing every 2nd time you load but otherwise nothing too serious.
Looking forward to the human campaign and the others that will come.

What did you think of it?

looking for RTS recommendations with good single player campaigns or matches vs AI.
pic related is pretty much the first RTS I've fully dived into, beat the campaigns twice, spent some hours on skirmish mode but now I'm burned out on it. looking for something similar (other than the sequels), I liked how this game is more tactical and relies on you keeping your units alive rather than just have a massive army.

Seconding this. Blitzkrieg is a ton of fun, really love it and all of the clones and spin offs. Very much a dated game, but I feel like nothing else has that right mix of jank and simplicity. Stupid difficult at times, but also can be a cakewalk after you memorize all the arty locations and counterbattery. It's worth a play on its own merits and uniqueness.

But it doesn't have much of an AI, which is kind of a plus for a singleplayer, lets you pace yourself, but you can't really skirmish and don't expect complex maneuvers.

there is a Civ4 mod "Fall from heaven" that is quite similar, but since it has the awful Civ combat mechanics, I never touched it.

It's pretty good. I used to play it all the time, back in the day. There are a few mod mods out nowadays, I should pick it back up.

>>1760278
>since it has the awful Civ combat mechanics, I never touched it
The combat in FFH2 is better than in BTS thanks to some adjusted values like a warrior's base strength being higher and promotions being essentially twice as effective. You can also use spells to create swarms of expendable summons or cause area damage before combat begins, which lets you conserve your living units.

>>1752094
>>1752111
>>1760228
they used a drone to kill the blm shooter in 2016 and it was considered a novelty then, but that might have been because the drone actually did the killing. i think op is proposing a recon drone but idk how common that would be either. might even be less common
>>
>>1760230
It wasn't even legal for them to use drones for most shit until 1-2 years ago. Citing practical reasons ignores the entire bureaucratic procedure of their adoption. So outside wars, and especially Ukraine, you will see more hobbyists using drones for things while the police for a very long time would use borrowed predator drones in a state-by-state basis.
