Starship Troopers
”Everybody fights, no one quits. If you don't do your job, I'll kill you myself. Welcome to the Roughnecks!” -- Johnny Rico
This is a space-themed military game based on the novel by Robert Heinlein and the films Starship Troopers (1997) and Starship Troopers 2 (2004). Players assume the role of a soldier in the Mobile Infantry and participate in missions in support of military operations. Fans of the book and/or films and people who like digging deep into tactics and strategy will enjoy this game. Gameplay is rather straightforward (kill the enemy species but don’t get killed) and the options for character customization are nearly endless with 8 classes, 40 skills, and 36 feats to choose from.
This game allows my military background to shine through and it’ll provide a glimpse of a soldier’s life to those who’ve never experienced it.
