Africa is lost if the Axis advancement succeeds in the Sahara Desert, and only one military unit stands in their way--the Desert Rats. By official government declaration these fighters didn't exist--their missions were denied by Allied commanders. Yet this small band of Special-Forces fighters was the only hope for victory in North Africa.Armed with an arsenal of authentic weapons including mounted machine guns, grenades and bazookas, players will battle through 12 massive levels. Success depends on having the most skilled gunner, and players will select from several soldiers to ride shotgun through each desert melee. Navigating the hostile terrain, gamers will fight off advancing air and ground troops while knocking out enemy munitions, raiding supply stockpiles and blowing up bridges critical to the opposition's mission. Only the best players may culminate their military service with the receipt of medals commemorating their desert victories and the rescue of their rescued comrade.
