About This Game

Cannon Fodder 3 preserves the tactical action gameplay and maintains the distinctive style and traditions of its predecessor. The battlefield remains active with a scope that mirrors the original conflict, as 500 soldiers are dispatched to determine their fate. Will they ascend to the rank of general or meet their end in honorable combat?

Unlike their 1994 counterparts, these modern soldiers possess superior equipment. They have access to 8 distinct vehicles designed for land, water, and aerial operations, plus an arsenal of 17 weapons ranging from assault rifles to nuclear capabilities.

Combat zones span across the globe and extend into space! You'll engage in day and night operations, battling through extreme temperatures, snowstorms, and rain showers. The formidable enemy consists of international terrorists equipped with advanced technology including teleportation devices and various mechanized combat systems. Your troops will face numerous challenges including artillery bombardments, impenetrable force fields, automated gun turrets, suicide attackers, and massive humanoid robots.

Your strategic thinking will be essential: your tasks extend beyond simply eliminating enemies. You'll need to seize enemy vehicles and strongholds, liberate hostages and prisoners, defend positions while operating turrets, locate data discs and replacement parts, fix damaged robots, and navigate through minefields. High command monitors your performance closely: missions may be cancelled due to serious infractions, minor mistakes will result in reprimands, while exceptional performance earns medals and promotions. Ultimately, the most accomplished soldiers will receive the ultimate prize: return to base where comfortable barracks, hot meals, soft bunks, and an affectionate drill sergeant await their arrival. Until the next deployment.
