Sounds good. Nice to see some new JA-type action finally. Definately should satisfy while waiting for the perenially delayed JA3.

Thanks for the review Jim, I'm surprised that the tilt/rotate was undocumented, our bad on that if so. I always use that to adjust the view to the angle I want. The scrolling is also smooth for me, what kind of system did you review on spec-wise? I'm glad you enjoyed it and I agree that it's a great heir to the Jagged Alliance dynasty.

Tilt and rotate works now that I know it's there. I searched the manual and FAQ several times - nada..
Here's the only view controls mentioned in the manual:
«Up Arrow». .. . .. . .. . .. . .. . .. . .. . .. . .. . .. . .. . .. . .. . .. . .. . . . . . . .Camera Up
«Down Arrow”. . .. . .. . .. . .. . .. . .. . .. . .. . .. . .. . .. . .. . . . . . . .Camera Down
«Left Arrow». .. . .. . .. . .. . .. . .. . .. . .. . .. . .. . .. . .. . .. . .. . . . . . . .Camera Left
«Right Arrow». .. . .. . .. . .. . .. . .. . .. . .. . .. . .. . .. . .. . .. . . . . . . .Camera Right
«SPACE». .. .. . . . . . . .. . ... . ... . ... . ... . ... . ... . ... . .. . . . . . . .Camera Focused On Nearest Visible Enemy
The manual tries to be too chatty; better if it had stuck to the old bare bones controls, mechanics, game play style. A bit boring but more useful in the end - like my reviews.
