In 2003 S2 Games released a rather offbeat multiplayer game called Savage. It was unique because it contained action style elements found in first person shooter and fighting games and combined them with strategy game elements putting you in the midst of the action at ground level. Additionally a class based unit system and a high level command interface brought the team based side of the game a fresh edge. It would be fair to say however that the game mechanics and learning curve were rather difficult for new players.
