We are still waiting on a suitable Amiga AGA emulator with robust recording features before tackling such games.

Player's Review
I've been waiting for somebody to play through the 21 mission Deathwing campaign, but since nobody seemed to be interested I decided to play this one myself ;-)
Might not be the most exciting thing to watch if you're not into these type of games. Good video game conversion nonetheless, fun and challenging. Better than HeroQuest and Space Crusade games imo. In addition to the campaign there are 30 turorial and single missions. Mission difficulty varies a lot during the campaign, but last missions were not the most difficult ones.
It's essential to spend lots of time on map screen in order to plan squad movement and also to track movement of enemy units. There's a promotion system in the game. Surviving squad gains experience which increases shooting and close-combat capabilities. If a squad is lost the experience will be lost aswell.
Amiga version has better intro & menu music, but doesn't have speech (huge minus) so I ended up playing the DOS version. There's also a CD-ROM version which adds extra 9 missions and more digitized speech. I decided to play the floppy version because the most obvious difference I noticed was that the marines constantly yell "overwatch" and this gets annoying after a while.
