Hammer & Sickle: Preview @ GamerOver
   

Nival's 'Hammer & Sickle' has been <a href="http://www.game-over.net/reviews.php?page=features&id=478" target="_blank">previewed</a> at GameOver:<blockquote><em>If this were a game review I’d recommend Hammer and Sickle to anyone who plays squad-based strategy games and certainly anyone who liked Silent Storm. I should probably also add that I thought that the difficulty level of this game was quite high, even on the ‘easy’ setting. Maybe I’m just a moron at this sort of thing, but I found that the computer has a much greater feel for action point usage than I do. So, while I have sort of this half-assed plan of running down an alley, hopping a fence, going prone, and firing my rifle, the reality runs me out of action points just as I climb over the fence leaving me completely vulnerable. Meanwhile the computer can step forward the perfect amount, get off a shot, and still get back behind cover for its turn runs out. At any rate, if you’re going to skip the strategy – go at every mission with guns blazing – you’re probably going to die a lot. Careful planning is the rule, and if you’re in the mood for it as I was it can be a heck of a lot of fun. I probably would have enjoyed it even more if I spoke Russian.</em></blockquote>

Looking forward to trying this one out. Don't know if it will be as good as Jagged Alliance but we'll see.
