''Secret Weapons of the Luftwaffe'' (''SWOTL'') is a World War II air-combat flight simulation video game released in August and expanded in 1992 by LucasFilm Games. It is a MS-DOS game for IBM PC compatibles. It was the last of a trilogy of World War II titles by LucasFilm Games, the others being ''Battlehawks 1942'' (1988) and ''Their Finest Hour'' (). It enabled the player to fly aircraft of the USAAF Eighth Air Force and the German Luftwaffe, including some experimental aircraft that did not see operational service during World War II. The game was initially released with a codewheel and a 225-page manual, detailing the air war over Western Europe between 1943 and 1945. The game also featured a campaign mode, similar to that found in "Their Finest Hour", where the player had to make the strategic decisions on which targets were to be attacked (as USAAF 8th Air Force) or defended (by the German Luftwaffe). Some gameplay elements included, such as the historic missions section, are evident in later Lawrence Holland games including X-Wing. ==Gameplay== SWOTL is focused entirely on the 8th USAAF vs Luftwaffe challenge during World War II, especially the American Strategic Bombing offensive against Germany, from August 1943 towards the end of war in 1945. It is focused more on action than on realistic simulation. SWOTL airplanes can be efficiently flown with a mouse, keyboard or joystick. The game sets up German secret weapons, with fast jet propulsion and a variety of missiles and bombs, against slower but more numerous American piston-engined airplanes. There are a number of ways into the game, covering full Tours of Duty, historical missions, campaign battles as well as a custom mission builder. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Secret Weapons of the Luftwaffe」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
