The Few Free Download [portable Edition]

Updated: Mar 25, 2020





















































About This Game Take command over RAF during the WW2 history turning point, the Battle of Britain! The goal of the game is to defend Great Britain against German bombing raids. The game has two distinct gameplay experiences where: * The player manages war production and squadron placement * The player organizes patrol routes and tactics Once combat is initiated the player can lead their squadrons to attack waves of German bombers utilizing simple touch or mouse commands. The game follows the historical timeline very closely, but at the same time - the game mechanics are easy to learn (yet hard to master) and it provides great entertainment for both seasoned and novice players. * There are 8 aircraft types in the game - including of course the famous Supermarine Spitfire! * Every pilot is earning his own experience - witness your rookies become aces! * Manage the British war machine - decide what should be built and where * Fight epic air battles! * Lead English, Polish, Czechs, Canadian and New Zealands squadrons to fight for freedom! The game implements ‘German Command AI” which results in each campaign playing out differently. No two games will ever be the same. 7aa9394dea Title: The FewGenre: StrategyDeveloper:BlackMoon DesignPublisher:BlackMoon Design Release Date: 18 Jun, 2014 The Few Free Download [portable Edition] Buy it! very good game , if you like the battle of Britian 1940, the pilot sounds during combat are classic, they yell and shriek , cheer and jeer,action is fast pace with fast forward button and AI on the 50 days mission is keen and plentifulI would like some more stats of individual pitlots and the ability to de commision squadrons , maybe choose the squardron from a list rather than be given one , I also would like to play German overall the Major gives it 4 of 5 stars. This game is so close to being good, but it falls short in a few ways that by themselves aren't a big deal, but together create a poor experience. Pros - A unique experience in PC gaming (for the most part).Interesting management aspectsCons -Poor and unresponsive UI and controls.There were 71 squadrons in the Battle of Britain. Of those, 2 were Polish. Yet in the 3 times I played the campaign, all my squadrons were polish, with polish names and voices. This is INCREDIBLY unimmersive. Oh and weird, the developers are Polish. I'm all for remembering their sacrifice and effort in the battle of britain, but not at the expense of the British.The game is not well explained to you. There's a short annoying tutorial, then some hints.The actual tactics of the game aren't that interesting, and can tend to be a little micromanagey. Overly so. The best tactics are all cheesey and gamey.It's repetitive. Fighting the same kind of enemies over and over.The sounds...mostly okay except the voices. There doesn't seem to be a way to turn them down in battle, so it's just listening to bad polish voice acting.I wanted to like this game, but ultimately I didn't. For a better Battle of Britain experience try the board game - RAF: The Battle of Britain 1940.. As it stands I heavily advise AGAINST buying this game for several reasons.1 - You can lose all of the pilots in a squadron simply because they're too terminally stupid to make the decision to bail out themselves and it's often an impossible task to hit the bail out button the game gives you in the *tiny* window of time available to you to do so while the pilot's plane is under fire.2 - Withdrawing is not an option, say your pilots have stripped away the fighter cover for a flight of bombers but are in no shape to carry on the fight? Tough. It's very much the stalinist approach of victory or death, if you go back to the map you're left at the tender mercies of the auto-resolve system (which will happily let four bombers wipe out a squadron) or you're forced to fight on and risk losing all of your pilots to problem #1. (Yeah having to tell your guys to bail out is irritating.)3 - No big wings. The 'big wing' was a tactic in which several RAF squadrons would group together to engage enemy attacks together, it took time to set up but it helped even out the numbers against massive German formations. This game does not let you do that and instead expects you to fight off dozens of planes with just eight of your own which leaves you at the mercy of problem #2 wherein you cannot withdraw should carrying on the fight become foolish which is particularly infuriating if you have another squadron or two nearby that could take over.4 - The voiceacting is terrible, I had to turn off the audio for the tutorial guy just because I couldn't stand the sound of the mans voice.5 - If you accidentally create a squadron at your airfield when that airfields squadron is in the air, tough luck. Doesn't matter that this new ghost squadron has no planes, you can't delete it, move it or do anything with it and you now have as many as eight rather expensive flying machines in the air that can't land because the airfield 'is full'. Despite the ghost squadron again, having no planes.If you have your heart set on this game wait a few weeks or even a month or two for some patches to come in, otherwise you're setting yourself up for an absolute pain in the rear.. I'm the guy who checks New releases on Simulations and Strategy games daily looking for the diamonds in the rough. This Game puts you in the role of Air marshall In Charge of the Raf during the battle of britain. It has 3 different scenario, 10days 25 days and 50 days. It has a very good tutorial, I've played about 3 hours so far and am confident that I have the mechanics mostly down. You manage your budget, Decide what to build, (factories, airfields, radar, artillery) WHere to place it and of course you are in charge of your squadrons. WHen you actually enter combat, you can auto resolve and the let the computer do it or you can take charge yourself. The battles do occur in real time, but the pause feature is there when you want to update your orders due to changes in the battle. I've played about 3 1\/2 hours and gotten about 4 days in our 50 days, so you are defintely going to get your monies worth. I highly recommend this game to anyone who enjoys simulation\/management\/tactical combat games. Anyone who enjoys air combat in xenonaughts will love this game, anyone who enjoys the panzer general, panzer corps series will also love this game, I do hope this game does well for them, i would like to see some expanded features via pathces or dlc or even another game where we can play the german side. All in all well worth the money for the time and gameplay experience.. This is a really good and budding game. It'll make you think strategically, tactially and has a brilliant campaign map\/Real Time Combat feature.It is full of potential, and makes people nostalgic of older games .Some may recognise the combat mechanics from flash games, but with the money coming in might come shipping convoys, 113 day grand campaign and many details to be added.It is a game that rewards patience and practise and I highly, highly reccommend this addicting game!There is no auto-save feature, but I recommend saving each midnight rather than before each battle - take the casulties!. Fantatsic little strategy game for less than \u00a36. Its a smart but simple take on the Battle of Britain where you take on the task of defending Britain from the Luftwaffe in 1940. The game is essentially in two parts, the strategic map where you purchase and place factories, AA, airstrips, order planes and recruit pilots. You also direct you squadrons on sorties on this map in pausable real time. But when a squadron meets an enemy squadron, the map swaps to a tactical view, where you can control planes by "drawing " their flight route. As pilot become more expirienced they are more accurate and need less micromanaging (actually performing better than I could if in direct control). You need to try and save your pilots as training takes time, and the loss of experince can be devistatinging to your war effort, so the bail out button should be at your fingertips - just dont bail out over the sea! If you do well, you get more cash to spend on replacing planes, and expanding your defences. If you let your cities get bombed your income drops. Love the ability to edit the pilot names, which makes it sadder when they go down in flames (or even sadder when they are bombed\/strafed when still on the runway!) Any bugs that may have existed once have been resolved, as far as I could see, having just finished the short "Blitz" 10 day campaign. Ready to see if I can survive the 50 day one now...... I love the idea and the game, however its extremely hard to play later on in the game.I hope and await for "The Few 2", to fix all this problem for me.Currently this feels more like a Cannon Fodder gameplay.
