Before I start out I must have a disclaimer! I am in no way associated
with Omnitrend (game designer) or Modern Day Publishing (publisher of
VIDDCOMM the magazine of BREACH), I am a satisfied player and would like
to see more of these types of games.
Breach is a single-player tactical-level combat game. It features the
capability to maneuver individual men in squads totaling 20 marines.
The game comes with scenarios already constructed. However along with
the game is a scenario builder feature, that will allow you to create
your own scenarios. The game uses th Mac interface very well. It has
digitized sounds and excellent graphics. A must for anyone interested
in this type of game. There are 5 types of marines that you will
control (1) A squad leader (2) Marauders; normal marines (3) Infiltrators
spys (4) Scouts (5) Psionic Talents; mind experts. You will fight a
variety of enemies from monsters to aliens beings. Thers will always be
a mission to complete and each time it will be different. There are
objects along the way to help every thing from detectors and grenades to
rocket launchers and demo charges. Play this game It's great.
If you are already a player of Breach please let me know! I have been
in touch with Modern day publishing who is in constant touch with
Omnitrend and they feel that there is not as much interest
with their Mac line of games as there other lines. This could cause a
problem with mac users. They have some other games comming down the
pike and they are unsure whether they will do conversions to the Mac or
not. If I can show that there is a lot of interest in Breach, some of
thier other great games will get Mac consideration.
What is Modern Day Publishing? It is a company in North Carolina that
that puts out a magazine for Breach Players called VIDCOMM. Inside each
copy of Vidcomm are reviews of games, helpful hints for Breach, and
Omnitrend games, humor and more. Your subscription to Vidcomm entitles
you to access to thier 24 hour BBS, which has more Breach scenarios on
it than GEnie or Compuserve combined. The access to the BBS is part of
your subscription, $15.95 for the year. There are no additional charges
for the use of the BBS. Through Vidcomm you will gain access to
purchase disks and disks of Breach scenarios at very reasonable prices.
Right now Modern Day Publishing is making this offer.
Buy Breach at the regular retail price of 39.95, and receive:
(1) The game Breach
(2) A 3 month trial subscription to Vidcomm
(3) 1 free public domain disk full of breach scenarios.
I am not getting anything from Omnitrend or Modern Day Publishing,
I am doing this to insure that Omnitrend will convert thier other games
to the Mac. They have a game called Paladin, some what like breach but
takes place at the time of sorcery and swords.
Please mail to me all comments about what I ahve written. I want to see
more Omnitrend Mac games!!!!!
thanks
