ECTS 3 September 2000 - Ubi Soft® Entertainment and Mathematiques Appliquees S.A. (MASA) have partnered to publish and distribute Peacemakers, the "next generation" of 3D Real Time Strategy (RTS) for PC & Sega Dreamcast.
It is the early 21st century and the five major blocks of the world have organized themselves into the International Corps for Peace (ICP) to guarantee the peace. Within this world independent countries are in conflict as civil and ethnic wars have broken out. Peacemakers offers players the opportunity to choose whether to play the ICP or as the dictators, to ensure their best hope of victory.
Peacemakers strives to deliver the definitive RTS experience. In a game where public opinion is crucial to your campaign, you can't afford to ignore the power of the people. Players must gain popularity within the media, thereby convincing the public to provide the players "force" with more budget and better technology.
Unparalleled adaptive AI directs the opposing force in their strategic maneuvers that are truly a first. Players can win twice with the same tactic, but never three times!
Allied Commanders with evolving behaviour systems have ways of adapting to specific missions, and need to be used wisely as they can make all the difference in operations.
