Fallout Tactics: Brotherhood of Steel vs Master of Orion
Fallout Tactics: Brotherhood of Steel
Fallout Tactics: Brotherhood of Steel is another spin-off, aside from Fallout: New Vegas, in the Fallout franchise, but unlike New Vegas, this game went halfway back to its roots in terms of its looks (with isometric graphics) while the other half is filled with an amazingly-strategic, turn-based and squad-based combat system. The squad system works well in this game mainly because the storyline in this game is based on the famous/infamous Brotherhood of Steel and apparently, you'll be playing one of the squads, and partly because you have the freedom to actually customize every member of your squad so you could specialize their skills or have them be as versatile as possible.Despite being one of the most overlooked Fallout games, Fallout Tactics: Brotherhood of Steel is a very strategic game that allow Fallout's younger fan base to catch a glimpse of the old-school Fallout games while still retaining a certain amount of modern-ness in its gameplay back when it was first released. After all, it's the most recent Fallout game that truly pays homage to the really old Fallout games.
Master of Orion
Master of Orion is a rather revolutionary strategy game that has coined the subgenre "4X" which represent the four main game elements in Master of Orion - "eXplore, eXpand, eXploit, and eXterminate". Play as one of the ten races available and set off to explore the vast uncharted parts of the galaxy to colonize. The game features a ton of planets and solar systems to explore, various customizable spaceships for you to travel in, more than 75 different researchable technologies and a turn-based gameplay where you are free to decide how you'd like to win, be it through military conquest, technological advancement, diplomatic prowess or other methods.Master of Orion is a gem of a game especially for fans of space-themed strategy games. You'll literally get to control and modify each aspect of your empire building and colonization efforts in addition to building ties to neighboring alien empires in hopes of further fuelling the expansion of your race.
