Pick up your rifle and join the Green or Grey army in their mission to send the enemy home in a box! RUNNING WITH RIFLES is an open world, top-down, tactical shooter for single player and multiplayer online, that puts you right in the middle of chaos in towns, trenches and forests turned into ruthless battlefields, controlling just one soldier in an army of several hundreds.
In a war where men die like flies and endless streams of reinforcements run to fill the void, it takes tactics and marksmanship to capture territories effectively. The open world nature of the game enables you to use a multitude of approaches to help the front line move – it's up to you to shape your role. Experience the complete arc starting as a private hardening into a high ranking officer with a squad under command, arming yourself with a variety of weapons and vehicles on your way to glory!

We forgot to remove some comments in the weapon xml file in 0.82 so that you can only have 4 weapons unless you play the invasion mode.
As a quick fix, just replace the "all_weapons.xml" (in \media\packages\vanilla\weapons ) with this one: Dl.dropbox.com
Sorry for the inconveniences.
You should add Soldier Morale and retreating.

hi RogueWaffle,
You intro music is very aggressive, I had to lower the sound ;)
Also making a video of a VERY old version hurts my eyes :D
So much new stuff missing in there.
I just bought it, the demo was promising and, why not, let's help a bit the indies.

Back when Jefmajor did a video on this game it was such a odd game because there just boxes every where and this game looked so BAD but now its just ..... AWESOME
Yay, changes and progress! Now who would've guessed something like that might happen in a product under heavy development? ;)
Too bad it sounds like we lost the odd factor, every game should definitely be a little odd. :P
