A really old, fun TBS

Yes, it's from like 2002. And yes, it requires Shockwave. My question is, is there anything more modern like this? It's not hugely different than most tile turn-based-strategy games, but it has just enough twists that I like it.

Avid League player and apparently back from the dead!

If we weren't going for your money, you wouldn't have gotten as much value for it!

Oh, wait... *causation loop detonates*

I LOVED THAT GAME. If I remember correctly, it used to be hosted on the LEGO Website, but when it was taken down I didn't know anyone had kept it elsewhere. Thanks for the link.


Frozen Synapse reminded me a lot of it art-wise, but unfortunately the gameplay isn't too similar. Can't think of any other games that are much like Nightfall Incident.
I can already tell this is going to be a roller coaster ride of disappointment.

I remember that one. Great game. I too would like something similar, but I've never come across anything that did anything quite like that. It was the perfect mix of simple gameplay on the surface, but deep enough to stay interesting.
