Desert Strike - A classic revisited **includes spoilers**

Post by steve »

Rereading Desert Strike for the first time in almost twenty years, I was struck by the ambitious scale and scope of the story. 8)

Some of the things are laughable, recovering a sunken Harrier from the bottom of the ocean and it working afterwards is a bit far fetched :roll: , but in general most of the story does work really well.

All in all a thoroughly good read, and a rip roaring good old fashioned War Story! :lol:

Even the supporting (expendable) characters were well developed, especially Sergeant Flash York, and his heroic decoy action.

Overall 9/10
It's good to be back

:cmmdr: Action Force STILL Needs You! :cmmdr:
