As I was loading the game, I was expecting a Rainbow 6 clone. In fact Alfa plays like a mix of Rainbow 6 and Combat Mission




So you always wanted to be in the special forces? You’ve tried the SWAT team, Delta, Seals, SAS and other outfits? Time to up the stakes and go where the real men are. Russia ’s elite, the Alfa group, is now waiting for you.
You may already now that a significant portion of software games are actually developed in Russia and then repackaged for European and US consumers. Along comes a new title ALFA Antiterror developed mostly for the Russian market but a demo is now available in English with a release soon to follow.
So who are these Alfa dudes? Initially a small special force instated during soviet times to deal with “special situations” they are best taught of as a mixture of “SWAT” and commandoes. They usually operate with great discretion so not much is known about them. The 2 most recent occasions where they were in the eye of the mediatic storm were a massive hostage taking in a Moscow theater (about 50 heavily armed terrorists including suicide bombers taking about 800 people hostage) in 2002 and in a school in Beslan (about 30 terrorists and over 1000 hostages) in 2004. Both situations unfortunately resulted in heavy civilian casualties. Other than that Alfa has been extensively operating in Chechnya where there has been a mix of insurgency and terror warfare since 1996. And this pretty much sets the background for the game.
