War on Terror is a modern combat RTS game, set against the background of today's greatest threat to world peace – terrorism! Forces clash in believable scenarios, set within real locations across the globe.

War on Terror brings modern precision-strike warfare to real-time gaming. At the dawn of the new century, peace is a forgotten relic of the past. Secret terrorist groups, united into a single deadly force, have launched lethal assaults in major metropolitan areas around the globe. Their agenda is unknown; their attacks are precise and deadly. In December 2006, a multinational strike force called The World Forces is created to stop this threat. Its first mission, Operation Kimberly, is a failure, and China decides to follow its own policy against terrorism. It is now up to the player to destroy the terrorist threat and set a new course for decades of peace.
Check out details and 31 new War on Terror screens (http://www.worthplaying.com/article.php?sid=30422) over at WorthPlaying.

If they do, does that make them unconventional terrorists? ;)

sadly, the greatest threat to world peace is not in fact terrorism, but simply: fucking ignorant people who bend over every 4 years at election time.

Totally, I wanted to play as a member of the "Coalition of the Willing" like, uhh. . . Italy, no they're gone. Hmmm. . .

Oh, the UK. Yeah, UK kicks ass! Who else. . . hmm, some of these other countries look made up. . .

Capitulists make baby jesus cry. Allowing terrorists to dictate your countries foreign policy is some kind of fucking moral stance now?

A whole series of terrorism based games would be cool. Strategic stealth missions as a suicide bomber like MGS!!! Or Rock Sniper!!!

War on Terror is a stupid ass name and premise for a game...

By all indications, having the US invade Iraq accomplishes several of Osama bin Laden's goals at once. Toppling the secularist Saddam, making the U.S. government look like clueless oil-mongering bullies to the rest of the muslim world and causing a self-repeating loop of fear and oppression in our own media. So, given that Bush largely won the 2004 election because of people who claimed "moral" issues were the deciding factor, one could argue that it IS considered to be "some kind of fucking moral stance" in the United States.

Bush won mostly because Kerry was even more liberal than Bush's pitiful liberal ass. HE also won because there have been no real attacks in the USA since Bush started fighting these people in thier own lands.

Yes, it was. Do you even know what Wahhabism is and how it relates to Sunnis and Shias, or is you world view of terrorism more akin to "G.I.Joe Versus Cobra?"

Saddam is a bad guy, there is no way getting around that. But that being said, going after saddam is a military blunder. Now we have two fronts to cover, people still forget that we are in afghanistan.

We have spread our forces thin, that also jeopardizes the security in america. Because a lot of people in the reserves and national guard are over in Iraq.

Right now we are in a lose lose situation in Iraq. We leave, we embolden insurgents, terrorists, al qaeda, or whatever you want to call them. We stay, it still emboldens them.

We have to clean up this mess, but I don't know what will be left of america when we are done there. This Iraq war which really has nothing to do with the true war on terrorism, has drained our coffers, switched our attention to iraq, and has drained are most valuable resource...American lives.

But anyways I think this video game will suck.

The public was not for the invasion of Iraq, and when their government failed to keep their homeland secure, they booted theirs asses out, and rightly so. If only Americans were smart enough to demand our leadership accountable for enormous failures in regards to security.

And as for the Kurds.

A. Where did Saddam get that gas? He came up with it not too long after shaking hands with Donald Rumsfeld.

B. WTF does Saddam gassing the Kurds 15 years ago, have to do with 9/11, 3/11 or the terrorists that attacked us? Back when he did it, our government sided with Iraq against the Iranians. The Kurds allied themselves with Iran. We didn't care then, so why do some pretend to care now? If this war was sold as retaliation for the Kurds. We wouldn't be there right now.

This is what bugs me. Too many people that don't know shit about the global picture.

The fact is there are people that have created a massive orginization to destroy the western world. This isn't simply a "we need to stop that dude from blowing up the McDonald's with a car bomb" deal.

A fact that you really need to get your mind around is that Al Qaeda and others are seeking nuclear weapons and will use them on the United States as soon as they possibly can. It's NOT a joke kid.

As for the Kurds, I was answering a question about WMDs, not why we invaded Iraq. Read the previous statmens b4 u write k thx.

Obviously, to you Bush and America is the enemy, not the guy (Saddam) who gave $25,000 checks to the families of Palestinian suicide bombers, threw people in wood-chippers feet first, and had a jet body fuselage to train terrorists... (as I mentioned before)

America is my enemy? Fuck you. People like you are my enemy.

Osama Bin Laden is my enemy. Remember him? You know the slime that actually coordinated real attacks in our country? Remember that guy?

Frankly I dont' give a shit what Saddam did to his own people, or who he paid. None of that justifies this war of choice in Iraq. IF Iraqis wanted a revolution, they should have started one!

The fact is, there are dumbasses in this world, and they need order. If it takes a retard to do it, so be it. None of us are doing anything, are we?

BTW, Act of War is a great RTS. I'd lime to see what this bring to the table, continuing where WESTWOOD left off with C&C.

ROFL!!!

I am not gonna get involved in this anyway (most people here know my ideas on this, no use repeating them) but this quote really is funny (in a very sad and realistic kind of way) ;)

>I lived in Saudi Arabia for 6 years, I hardly need an "I Google everything I know" lesson from your punk kid ass

I hope you were there to make a difference in some kind of way and not to make shitloads of easy money from oil? Ohhh... wait.... Anyway... "why would being in SA" give you a more valid view on the world?

You want to learn how to deal with terrorism? Read the suspense novels by Vince Flynn. His main character, Mitch Rapp, is the counterterrorism spearhead.

Know how he operates? he finds terrorists and puts a bullet in their head, end of story.

Personally, althought these are works of fiction, I completely agree with the approach. As long as Muslims(the bad ones, not the good ones, and there are plenty of good ones) can propose a belief system that rewards suicide bombers with eternal nirvana, we have to kill these people, and kill them immediatley, with no remorse. Islamic religion(I'm searching for the right phrase, and this is not it, my apologies) doesn't demand the extremes these insane people endorse, fyi, and we can't let them push that alternative.

I see that as our biggest issue when addressing middle east peace. The countries do not observe separation of church and state. Church is the state, and we have to acknowledge, accept, and work within their religious belief system to effect a solution.

Obviously, it will not be easy.

I apoligize ahead of time for grammatical errors. Ignoring them, I think my point is clear.

Yeah.. let's just forget why they became terrorists in the first place. Like I always say when I have to brief some developers "The best (as in bug free and speed) code is code that isn't there".

Kinda cool you base your world views on a "suspense novel".

But yes.. your point is clear ;)

Killing soldiers isn't terrorism. Conventional warfare? Not terrorism.

It's liberal kids like you that end up getting our troops killed because :
1. Your Left-Wing Americans are quoted constantly by the enemy to encourage them.
2. Your Left-Wing rules of warfare have handicapped our troops such that they cannot fight a real war. Constantly worried about civilian casualities, accidently blowing up a mosqe, or persuing the enemy into Syria or Iran.

Iraq is THE front now on the war of terror, killing Bin Laden, getting rid of Saddam, and freeing the Iraqis were only secondary objectives. Having a massive presence in the heart of the Middle East to change it is the primary. Not an easy or quick task. Your "If it's not on Google or MTV I don't get it"-self doesn't understand why this doesn't take less than a week, I know.

that has got to be the biggest pile of "i'm an ignorant republican sheep" shit i've ever read.

bush made a choice to focus on iraq instead of afghanistan (where the brains behind the terrorists were and still are), so yeah, all the dipshipt bombers now go to iraq to do their killing as they stand a better change of killing random americans-and-allies, if they were focusing on afghanistan then they'd be all putzing along to go there.

and don't kid yourself, iraq is about oil, afganistan is about terrorism. although since the leaders fucked up iraq, its now more about saving face then anything else.

they're not focusing on afghanistan because if they DID kill the Laden, then they woudln't have as much of an excuse to stay in iraq and do all their backroom deals there.

in any case, the terrorists aren't going to give up, ever. as soon as the allies leave (and they'll have to sooner or later, even if only because the US runs out of money to pay for it any longer), everything will flow back into the region and the mess of "religious" dictatorship will continue.

for anything to change in that region, the people have to make it happen, not someone from the outside.

our sole goal after 9/11 should've been to find all those responsible for 9/11 and put them through a meat grinder to be fed to pigs.

We still have a ton of troops there anyway, but not much going on there really. Also Bin Laden isn't there anyway.

Man u listen to NPR too much lol... You'd think we have 17,000 combat deaths per day in Iraq listening to the likes of you. Instead it's only been approx 1700 for the ENTIRE TIME we've been there.

http://icasualties.org/oif/stats.aspx

For example, it would probably suprise you to know that California lost 2,394 to murder in 2004 compared to 905 coalition lives in Iraq during that same time.



in any case, the terrorists aren't going to give up, ever. as soon as the allies leave (and they'll have to sooner or later, even if only because the US runs out of money to pay for it any longer), everything will flow back into the region and the mess of "religious" dictatorship will continue. for anything to change in that region, the people have to make it happen, not someone from the outside. Oh really? "we can't win" I guess we should just bust out our prayer rugs and convert to Islam then? People like you are frankly, well, just pathetic.

It wasn't easy in Germany either : http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/952253/posts and that turned out to be a HUGE failure didn't it? /sarcasm


our sole goal after 9/11 should've been to find all those responsible for 9/11 and put them through a meat grinder to be fed to pigs. That's the limited narrow view of the world that I expect from people like you. Unless you are willing to use nuclear weapons (which I am), you have to do MUCH more (nation building, change hearts and minds stuff) than just kill "those responsible"(whatever that means)... and that's what you seem to totally fail to understand.
