10 battery nodes that power the stations floating repulsers. After destroying 9 you begin to get shot at
from behind. The Geist is back and continues

What if the Nazis had won WWII and
dominated the globe?
‘Birds of War’ is a fast paced
arcade/flight simulator designed for Xbox 360, PS3 and PC.
In the 1980s the
world suffers under the iron fist of the Nazi regime. Pockets of freedom
fighters struggle to free the world of the tyranny. The Nazi Empire has spent the last 40 years
since their victory in WWII perfecting the art of the war machine. They rein terror on their enemies using giant
earth shaking tanks, the most advanced jet and air superiority as well as
massive air ships that patrol the skies.
The
rebels must scavenge pieces of downed Nazi fighters as well as steal technology
information just to be able to fight back.
Players will be able to fully customize their planes based off of what
type of mission they will be flying.
Players will be fighting massive war machines to bring down the Nazi
Empire once and for all.
2- Back-story & Concept
1945 the war is at
a critical turning point. The Russian
army is closing in on Berlin. Surrounded
and in fear of immediate defeat, Hitler calls down the order to launch its
secret weapon code named Odin. The
results are devastating to the Red Army driving back their forces back into
Russia. With Odin such a great success
the Nazis quickly and affectively win the war on each front in Europe. The Reich sends forces to now conquer the
Americas as wells as Canada who quickly fall.
The people of the world now are slaves forced to work in camps
harvesting the resources of the land.
Nearly the whole population adapts and accepts their fate under the
brutal rule of the Nazis.
Character-
Vinton
Brock is in his mid 20s. He was born and
raised in the ways of tactical combat in the air. He has been flying for just about as long as
he could walk. His father was the leader
of the resistance group the Iron Wolves until his fighter was shot down during
a brave attack on the Nazi strong hold when he was a boy ever since Vinton has
sworn to do everything thing in his power to see the end of the Nazi
Empire. He led many battles in his life time and
became a very successful leader. His men
looked up to him and would follow him to their deaths.
The
day had come when Vinton would strike against the very same strong hold where
his father had perished. The battle was
turning out to be a success. Vinton had
single handedly took down 11 enemy craft.
It looked like a victory for Vinton and the Iron Wolves until out of the
corner of his eye he saw it. There it
was the like something out of the legends they used to tell children. It was the air craft of Schneider also known
as the “Ghost”. His jet flew from the
fortress and almost effortlessly dispensed with 6 of the Iron Wolves Vinton
included.
Vinton
survived suffering severe head injuries and was captured and forced to work in
one of the Nazi camps after his injuries have healed. He wasn’t the same after the crash. Depressed he had almost given up hope. Until the day the Iron Wolves lead an attack
on the camp to free him. Once free
Vinton had no drive to take up the lead of the Iron Wolves until he got word
that the Ghost was destroying everything in his path. Rusty, Vinton got back into his plane and set
his cross hairs for Schneider.
