The Battle of Palmdale
We have found the enemy and it is us. In this historical wargame, an unmanned target drone breaks free over Southern California, forcing players to manage the crisis and decide where and how to intercept it. Players direct fighter aircraft, attempt to destroy the drone, and deal with the fires, blackouts, property damage, and other consequences caused by failed attacks over the Los Angeles area.
