Brigade E5: New Jagged Union

Good tactical phase... far from Silent Storm though. No story, no reason to play further, no global strategy... shame!

Huge potential wasted... why aren't we allowed to vote for hanging some of the developers? And watch the execution video... I'm even ready to pay to see the execution live!

After so many years from JA2 and with only Silent Storm to fill the gap (altough to short for a hardcore fan of the genre) with JA3D dead and burried by some russian team... E5 looked like a bright star at the horizon... And it could be that star - only with a little more work form the developers.

Shame and shame again... not to mention that the producers lost a lot of money by hurrying the release.

Although there is hope: the graphical engine is satisfactory, the tactical phase is good and the AI work very good. If only Bioware will buy the rights and do the rest as they know how:)))
