Another very good game, in terms of it's great storyline and it's bare-bones tactics and variety.

Care to give a synopsis on the storyline?

Well, the brilliant Dr. Sepulveda sought out a decade ago the Darwinian Digital Life project. A project to create a learning, feeling A.I. A decade's worth of research and development as yielded Darwinia: A digital theme park where it's inhabitants, darwinians, live their fruitful lives. As you play the game each location you visit serves it's practical purpose to Darwinia and the propagation of it's inhabitants. Recently, however Darwinia has been infected with a deadly virus, turning darwinians into evil creatures that are continuously corrupting the land and all of Dr. Sepulveda's work. It's your job, coming as a simple visitor, to help Dr. Sepulveda against the virus and save his work and his beloved darwinians.

Sounds interesting. I'd try a demo of it if I could find one.

My mom got me darwinia for Christmas a few years ago and I got multiwinia shortly after just cause it was made by the same people  :)

The Squad reminds me of a Brotherhood of Steel Paladin Power Armor soldier with a Laser Rifle.

Two Officers(One idle and one with follow or lead), two Engineers and a Squad is the best group for early levels.

I often find trying to control more than one squad is too confusing. You've probably fought centipedes by now so you know what I'm talking about, just wait till you get the flying ones.  :D
