Fail Safe is the newest DLC for Command: Modern Operations. Set in 1965 – one of most fraught periods of the Cold War – Fail Safe features period accurate weapons and vehicles that will guarantee an authentic wargaming experience.

Watch the Command: Modern Operations – Fail Safe launch trailer HERE.

From an opening scramble to recover a downed aircraft, ASW activities off the coast of Newfoundland, and the final battles of World War 3 where atomic weapons are finally unleashed – 12 missions will run you through the gamut.

Fail Safe is the pinnacle of 1960′s Cold War air and sea wargaming. The closest you can get to seeing what would have happened if Western and Soviet naval and airpower had fought the war that truly would have ended all wars.

MicroProse is thrilled to announce its early participation in the upcoming Steam Next Fest commencing February 24th, where players will get hands-on demo experience with the highly anticipated title coming soon: Task Force Admiral – Vol.1: American Carrier Battles!

Task Force Admiral – Vol.1: American Carrier Battles

Task Force Admiral Vol.1: American Carrier Battles is a single-player experience centered on the command of an early Pacific War US Navy carrier task force. As the overall commander, you are in charge of seeking the destruction of the enemy naval forces and preventing your opponent, the Japanese Navy, from accomplishing its objectives. To achieve your aims, you have at your disposal the most fearsome sea projection weapon known to Man in 1942: your carrier air groups and the task forces that support them.

As a carrier task force admiral in this pioneering age of air/naval warfare, assume the mantle of retribution in this innovative interpretation of a classic topic, as the first title in a new series that will further explore and develop the genre. Forget about the limitations of the past, and let the best of wargaming and simulation blend and blossom together in this new take on command at sea! Re-live the great battles of the first year of the Pacific War as if you were there yourself. In here there is no dice roll, no artificial skill-tree, no arbitrary stats, selective fog of war or supernatural crystal-clear communications. It is real-time crisis management for you, realism and historicity without concession, as little abstraction as can be, and loads of action, suspense and refreshing gameplay packed in the same single computer software.

Matrix Games has announced Fail Safe, the next DLC for Command: Modern Operations.

Fail Safe is set in 1965 – during one of the most fraught and perilous periods of the Cold War. A Yak-27 has just crashed on the Svalbard Islands after a daring reconnaissance mission over Greenland. As Soviet and NATO forces race to the downed aircraft, a tense standoff is about to escalate into an all out shooting war.

Fail Safe will see you command both old and new platforms. F-86 Sabers and F-104 Starfighters will take on Mig-15′s and 21′s. Old ships like the HMS Victorious, a carrier veteran of World War II, will take on the newest ships of the 1960′s like the Soviet November-class submarines and Sverdlov-class cruisers.

Old naval guns serve next to the newest anti air and anti ship missiles – every ship and air-frame in service will be needed.

The 12 mission campaign will see World War 3 fought out from the Arctic circle and the Atlantic to the Aleutians and the Pacific. Nowhere is safe from the Atom Bomb.

Fail Safe will be out on the Matrix Store and Steam February 25th.
