You can punch, kick, or even kick him in the -err, you know. For instance, whenever two soldiers on opposite sides get close enough, close combat will ensue. The game offers an excellent balance between action and strategy. There's a limit to the kind of soldiers you can choose, so you can't have put 5 flame throwers on the squad and expect a nice barbecue day )Īs in Cannon Fodder, you view the action from an isometric perspective, watching cartoony soldiers duke it out on the battlefield. This is very similar to Cannon Fodder games, except the soldiers here don't have individual personality (but then again, Cannon Fodder soldiers always look identical to me - they just have different names. Before each battle, you select soldiers to make up the squad from various types including gunman, flame thrower, rocket launcher, dynamite blaster, and grenadier. The two opposing generals are named, appropriately enough, General Chaos and General Havoc. The game is essentially a quick and dirty battle (or a longer campaign mode that's just a series of battles) between two opposing squads of 5 soldiers each. Think of crossing the zany action gameplay and humor of Cannon Fodder with wacky strategic elements of Nuclear War, and you'll have a good idea of what General Chaos is like. One of the most underrated games for the SEGA Genesis console, General Chaos is a fun and funny arcade/strategy game.
