What's new?:

Good news for Windows users.  We are developing a Windows Version of Firestrike that will replace the old DOS version. Click here for some screenshots of the beta version of the Quartermaster.

Future Plans:

The following list shows I intend to incorporate into FireStrike over the next few versions.

• Fire against buildings, An option OTHER will be appended to the target list as target 51. If it is selected a sub-target list of structures will appear. The user will select the structure, and damage will occur as normal. The user will be presented with a list of all possible ensconced within. The user slects the unit ensconced, and damage is affected. Any other units affected will then be checked for damage to structure will not be remembered.

• Breakdowns, Reliability factor will be built into the vehicle data file. This reliability will affect movement only. Checks will be built into the movement phase - when a unit alters it's movement a reliability check will result. If unreliability checks badly movement will cease for the rest of the battle or until repaired

• Ammunition/supplies, time lag until reload is completed.

• Ballistic Equations, Updating the ballistic equations

• Command tree, in command set up

• A time event screen, showing time based events as they happen, supplies, repairs.

• Orders log, a freefile text editor to record orders...infantry fire mg's &c.

• Victory Screen, showing points destroyed.

• Opportunity fire.

• GIF images of buildings.

• GIF images of weather. WIP

• Minefields, design Select unit crossing minefields - any unit will suffer casualties accordingly Uses normal method of target selection.
