Title: Open Source Fallout Tactics
Post by: Nikita_Sadkov on December 06, 2015, 12:55:39 pm
Did you knew about https://github.com/nadult/FreeFT ???

Fallout Tactics was basically an X-Com clone, with evil AI instead of aliens.

Fallout2 was a nice RPG, but tactical part was very basic, compared to say X-Com (although hexes were nice). Fallout Tactics fixed that, but unfortunately dropped the RPG aspect, enraging most of the fans. Still a great game, if you ignore the "Fallout" part of the name.

Yes, actually these are completely different games, one is a mix of an RPG and point-and-click anventure, the other is a simple strategy game  :)
