DESCRIPTION

In Massive Assault players take control of the Free Nations Union, formed shortly after the end of the third world war in 2058. A group called the Phantom League emerges in 2099 and is bent on global domination. As war becomes imminent and each force increases the strength of its armies, a new solar system is discovered and begins to be colonized. The Phantom League later forms a secret alliance and targets these space colonies in an effort to cut off Earth's latest supply of energy resources. In what is being called the "New World," the Free Nations Union forms its own secret alliance and a war for the New World begins.

Battles take place on one of the six featured planets with the goal of each game being to liberate all of the continents. Players will be required to develop new strategies at the start of each game as both sides randomly receive their secret allies. There are 26 units included for users to control as they discover advantages within each planet's terrain, outflank the enemy, and cut off supply routes. Games can be played against the computer or against a friend in Hot Seat or Internet play. ~ Jonathan Sutyak, All Game Guide
