Fallout Tactics: Brotherhood of Steel

Description

After the great war, the wasteland is inhabited by a wide variety of mutated species... And one force of order and justice: the Brotherhood of Steel. As a new initiate to the Brotherhood, you will undertake different missions to take on Raiders and such as you attempt to protect the fragile respawning of civilization... and discover the new threat to the west...

Fallout Tactics: Brotherhood of Steel is essentially the combat portion of the original Fallout series, with a new campaign, graphical polish, a set of random encounters, and a world map. The emphasis is on squad tactics and tactical combat, though your characters will grow like any RPG.

User Reviews

Playable on its own merits...	Vaelor (376)
Great until the final missions.	Terrence Bosky (5237)
All combat and tactics, no strategy, some extremely bad interface design... at times tedious	Kasey Chang (3695)	unrated
It's buggy and it falls a little short, but it works for me.	Zovni (9138)
A good, but far from perfect, continuation of the Fallout universe.	Ye Olde Infocomme Shoppe (1536)
A decent tactical game in the Fallout world, but limited in role-playing potential and not to be confused with the original RPGs	weregamer (157)
A fairly good continuation of the Fallout Series.	Michael Miller (2)	unrated
A fun combination of RPG and strategy that is marred by a general lack of polish	Droog (468)
Much Steel, little Brotherhood, even less Tactics.	Jacques Guy (55)	unrated
Its good, but not fallout	Chad Henshaw (34)	unrated

Trivia

I can't prove this, but I'm absolutely certain that the "stinky meat platter" you find in various places throughout the game is a nod to Mahlon Smith's "StinkyMeat Project". If you haven't checked it out yet, it's available here:
