I'm trying to find a strategy mech PC game from the 90s, of which I only played the demo. I've already searched high and low for such a game but I can't find it.

 

One thing I remember about it though, is that the game used a Hexgrid.

 

Does anyone know of a game that fits the description?

The wrench is your friend. :bat:

You mentioned hexgrid. Are you talking about a turn-based game, or real-time?

 

PC? Or console?

No, it was older than that. I think it must have been from 96 or 97.

Yeah, Mech Commander was RT.

 

Is it one of the early Warhammer 40k games?

I remember having lots of fun playing the demo. Highly recommended. :)

Is that(Missionforce, I mean) the first Earth/Starsiege game?

It's part of the same "universe" but it's a turnbased strategy game where you buy new mechs and train artificially made pilots for your corporate outfit. You also get to fight cybrid forces on different planets.

Obviously. >_<

Therefore it isn't either the first Eartsiege or Starsiege game.

But set in the same continuity and universe?

 

Nitpicking=irrelevant

I still have the CDs to that game. Never liked it very much.

Notice how I can belittle your beliefs without calling you names. It's a useful skill to have particularly where you aren't allowed to call people names. It's a mistake to get too drawn in/worked up. I mean it's not life or death, it's just two guys posting their thoughts on a message board. If it were personal or face to face all the usual restraints would be in place, and we would never have reached this place in the first place. Try to remember that.

Did you get two cds of the same game?

It came with a second disk, which I think enabled you to do multiplay.
