Field Combat

Game Details:

In "Field Combat" the player controls the protagonist, a high-tech battle tank "Genesis" that can launch missiles and summon friendly forces. The player's mission is to advance on a horizontal scrolling map while maintaining a combat advantage in the face of constant enemy attacks. The game's most unique mechanism lies in the ability to "recruit" enemy soldiers for your own use. You can capture enemies and convert them into your own troops using a special absorption beam (similar to a light gun), thereby enhancing your lineup. The game offers different types of units, such as infantry, tanks, and helicopters, and the map and combat rhythm reflect a certain degree of strategy. In that era, "Field Combat" was a unique work that combined tactics and shooting operations, with a certain degree of challenge and retro charm.

Editor's Recommendation:

If you are a player who likes the early 8-bit era arcade style, I highly recommend trying "Field Combat" It incorporates innovative elements such as "unit formation" and "enemy absorption and conversion" into shooting games, which are still unique even today. Despite its simple graphics, the game has a fast-paced rhythm and smooth controls, suitable for nostalgic players or users who enjoy battlefield strategy shooting games. You not only need to consider attacking, but also coordinate and dispatch troops, making it a dual contest of wisdom and strength.

Game Guide:

• Basic Controls: Use the arrow keys to move, press the A button to launch missiles to attack enemy units, and press the B button to use the absorption beam to capture enemy soldiers and convert them into your own troops.
• Tactical Advice: Prioritize absorbing infantry and tank units, as these units play a significant role in later battles. Your team will become stronger with each unit you absorb.
• Early Stage Advancement: Enemies are weaker in the early stages of the map, so it's suitable to absorb a large number of enemy soldiers to establish an advantage, and there's no need to rush to advance.
• Enemy Assault Phase: Helicopters are frequently deployed by enemies in the middle and later stages of the map. Pay attention to destroying flying units first to avoid being suppressed by aerial firepower.
• Defensive Counterattack Strategy: When the enemy presses in, you can adopt the "stop and gather" strategy, allowing your troops to concentrate on both sides of the vehicle for concentrated firepower counterattacks.
• Boss Battle Techniques: Some later stages of the game will feature enhanced enemy units as mini-bosses. It is recommended to eliminate the surrounding minions first and then concentrate firepower on dealing with the boss.
