What if Counter-Strike® and StarCraft® had babies? This game design, built in 6 days, attempts to answer that question. It features round-based RTS play, with objective systems, unit upgrades, and all of the other goodies of a RTS... and it features soldiers who can kneel, use various equipment, have real facings that matter, and cost points. Add in a traditional FPS feature- the endless respawn system... let an AI play it to teach the "nubs" how to eventually become "scrubs"... and there ya have it, Merc Squad in a nutshell. That, and you can capture the Yakuza boss's daughter. C'mon... just how cool is *that*?

Game features working multiplayer and singleplayer, an objective-based game-design, a points system that allows players to buy their troops and equipment, dynamic scoring on the fly, and many other features.  The visuals are rough, and the map we've included looks pretty beta, but we like it.  Give it a go, let us know what you think, and if people really want to see more, we'll get back to this after we finish P.U.R.E., which is our main project right now.

I have to say, it was the fact that nobody could tell me about this game, rather than the terrible tagline, which convinced me to look into it.
