Fallout Tactics: Brotherhood of Steel (PC) | 1.80 GB
Genre: Action Role-Playing
It’s fitting that the Brotherhood of Steel is the subject of Fallout Tactics, which uses the Fallout role-playing games’ excellent combat system as the basis for a tactical combat game. The Brotherhood has always been one of the Fallout series’ most intriguing elements. As the most militaristic and technologically advanced faction in the postnuclear wasteland of the United States, the group’s appearances in the Fallout role-playing games have always been brief but impressive. The Brotherhood takes center stage in this third Fallout game, which borrows many of the elements that made the first two so enjoyable and in turn manages to be a lot of fun despite a few problems.
It isn’t much of a surprise that the combat system itself survives the translation well. It’s been beefed up in some respects and stripped down in others, but only a few of the changes are questionable. What’s surprising is just how much like Fallout this strategy game is. The interfaces, maps, and environments are all similar to those in the role-playing games, and the story even has the same level of intriguing twists and turns. Fallout Tactics is much like Fallout overall–only with less talking and more fighting.
