Battlezone is a first-person basebuilder game. Almost uniqe in that aspect, though the graphics are shoddy. In the game you have a limit of 10 millitary units (Tanks, scouters, ect), Utility units (scavenger units and tugs) and finaly the defensive units (Turrets and Howitisers). The game takes place in a initial war between the Americans and the Soviets but eventualy the Soviets find alien relics and create a machene that becomes self aware and destroyes the soviets and you have to stop them from killing everything. A great point in the game is the fact that you can customise your units with armorys creating weapons and specials to fit into your vehicles hardpoints (cannon, rocket, mortar or special) and the fact that even the weakest vehicle (scout) can kill a walker (most expensive) if it is armed properly. You can build buldings but most of these buildings are not necsicary and are waste of recources. Also in this game the recouces get rare and hard to get but unlike most base builder games every unit drops half it's value in scraps wictch can then be gathered by your scavangers. This game was great for it's time but now is outdated by many games. Overall the game is a good game, decent gameplay ecept for the limit of units and shoddy graphics. THis game is around the $10 mark.
