MechWarrior 2: Mercenaries

Description

The stand-alone follow-up to Mechwarrior 2, Mercenaries puts you in command of a small company of 'mechs whose only loyalty is to money. As there is a brutal war between 2 tribes underway, your goal is to cash in by doing tough jobs for both sides.

Buy and equip your mechs, hire pilots, and fight in a wide array of campaigns against rebels, pirates, the Clans, and even other houses of the Inner Sphere. In the Merc mode you will have to keep an eye on stocks of salvageable material, and use this to designate which Mercs are built next, while Story Mode plays like a straight-ahead action game. Internet options include play with up to 15 others around the world.

Trivia

If you take a look at the readme you'll see the recommended detail settings for each class of processors (P1s, P2s, etc...) the funny thing is at the end of the list you'll see the specs for a Cray supercomputer!!! The recommended settings for it are high detail on everything and 1024x768 resolution (which is impossible for the game to achieve).... guess that was "super-computer" -class detail in 1996....
