With Woolard and his tank squadron covering their retreat, Moore and some of his troops escort the President's ambulance to Fort McNair. The President and his staff escape but right afterward, a Hierarchy Habitat Walker, the most deadly unit in their arsenal, lands on the now-abandoned Capitol Building, crushing it. Additionally, the Hierarchy has vast experience in invading worlds, and the loss of life in destroying Hierarchy forces is so large that, soon, there will be no forces left to defend Human civilians.ĭuring this fight, Colonel Moore, a stalwart military hero, and a tank commander named Sergeant Woolard evacuate the wounded President and his staff from the White House after battling through dozens of Hierarchy ground forces. Human technology is almost at a point where it can fight back effectively but is unable to do much damage against the larger Hierarchy weapons.

Human forces fight back valiantly against the Hierarchy, but the aliens are simply too advanced. These aliens are the Hierarchy, who go from planet to planet, first defeating all defending forces, then strip mining it of all resources. These are deduced to be an Alien invasion force, and Human forces prepare to fight an enemy almost beyond comprehension, and certainly beyond their level of technology, however, they are unable to muster an adequate force to fight off the invaders. Scientists have spotted strange objects en route to Earth. With tactical dynamics, a player is able to effectively change their strategy and adapt to a new situation relatively quickly, encouraging tactically minded behavior. These combined features intend to unleash a new level of gameplay, featuring truly diverse factions and what the developers call ' Tactical Dynamics'. UAW plays out like a many RTS titles, but combines aspects of all types of RTS game types, as well as features from MMO's. Everyone looks to each other in a state of nervous suspense and paranoid accusation.Universe at War: Earth Assault offers three very diverse factions, including the Hierarchy, Novus, and Masari, all of whom have been worked from the ground up to provide distinctive gameplay. Desperate attempts must be made to form fast, tactical alliances, alliances that may at any moment break-down to become the treacherous and most deadly of betrayals. This is an extremely difficult task since launching an attack on the enemy exposes the positions of your own Ground Silos, Subs and Bombers the moment they launch nuclear weapons, making you extremely vulnerable and exposed to a crushing counter-attack. In order to win you must wipe out the enemy population and simultaneously disable the enemy's ability to retaliate against you. Points are awarded or lost depending on both the efficacy and thoroughness of your nuclear vendetta and the number of your own civilian deaths.

Your mission is to successfully exterminate your enemy's civilian population whilst saving your own. You play a General hidden deep within an underground bunker. Inspired by the 1983 cult classic film, Wargames, DEFCON superbly evokes the tension, paranoia and suspicion of the Cold War era, playing on the fascinating aspects of psychological gameplay that occur during strategic nuclear warfare.
