Not easy to talk about games

Yeah, I like those rare gems unnoticed by the public too.
EXAMPLE: Metal Arms: Glitch In The System.

Can I go into a first person perspective and shoot things?

OH SILLY! GBAtemp is an underground gaming community! you can talk about whatever games you want!
GBAtemp used to host GBA roms back in 2002, that's why it was called that. There was no reason to change the name when it became a forum!

Thanks for the heads-up.
I think I'll have to look into this game.

Nope, best analogy, think Chess, you have a modest sized battlezone (which is nice as a lot of my wargames feature maps that mean a lot of scrolling around), and you have a modest sized force pool of forces some of which appear during the course of the game as reinforcements. You are tasked with obtaining objectives, specific locations on the map (something not uncommon to other types of games actually). Your units move much like chess pieces and how you move them, when you move them, and in which order you move them determines a lot of how you get responded to by your opponent.

The view is isomorphic 3d. The graphics are nice, light on the detail load and there are slight animations. The interface is incredibly user friendly.

The battles don't take too long (again not a common comment in wargames).

And just as with say a game of Starcraft 2, if you suck, your opponent hands you your butt on a platter
And you will lose more often than not to a better player, so there is a point to learning to play well (unless you like being beaten I suppose).
