Catch-22 (version 8.0) — About this game
Catch-22 (version 8.0) puts the mounted gun in charge of protecting friendly units rather than merely shooting every moving figure. Yellow marks the allies and red marks enemies across battles on land, at sea and in the air. Shoot a highlighted red location on the globe to choose a stage, then keep at least one friendly unit alive until it crosses the enemy line. Completing a breakthrough raises the military rank and awards a campaign medal. Identify the threatened ally before choosing the next target, since defeating a distant enemy does not compensate for losing the last protected unit.
