Our take on Commandos: Beyond the Call of Duty
The defining structure is an 8-mission campaign built around a small elite unit operating deep in enemy territory, with objectives ranging from soldier capture to train-artillery destruction and aircraft sabotage.
What is Commandos: Beyond the Call of Duty?
Lead a small elite unit through 8 missions set in enemy territory.
Objectives include abducting German soldiers, destroying train-mounted artillery, and sabotaging prototype aircraft. Missions add vehicles, buildings, weapons, and two difficulty levels. Players can distract enemy soldiers with stones or cigarette boxes, attack from a distance with the Enfield long-range weapon, or subdue opponents using ether, handcuffs, a club, or fists. The campaign introduces two characters: a female member of the Dutch resistance and a Major from the Yugoslav Partisan forces. The game accommodates both experienced players and newcomers to the Commandos Corps.
