Hi,

I'm an indie game developer and people might be interested in a new game
I've just completed similar to X-COM. The website is www.cornutopia.net.

Taskforce is a turn based strategy game where you command an elite team of
soliders on a variety of missions. There is a deep plot based story, and
lots of simulator missions, and you can play any completed mission at any
time. Each mission has random factors, such as random starts for the enemies
and some missions have randomised maps.

Like X-COM, maps are 3D (there are stairs and elevators),Taksforce is also
3D polygon based. There are a large variety of enemies, each with their own
strengths and weaknessess, as the plot of the villain, October Morgane, is
revealed.

For more information, screenshots, and the download visit the Taskforce page
on www.cornutopia.net.

I loved the original X-COM game (although techincally, my first Taskforce
game predates it to 1994!).

Mark
