Description
Being a Head of State in the 21st century implies many responsibilities, and making strategic choices in complex geopolitical situations. However, the most impactful decisions are neither the most visible nor the most ethical.
4th Generation Warfare offers a unique combination of strategy and RPG games, set in the depths of 21st century asymmetric warfare where sneak moves are a must.

• Take control of a country of your choice in the modern world and deploy a handpicked team of professionals around the globe to counter the influence of your enemies, destabilize them and impose your supremacy.
• Take advantage of real-world 2D and 3D maps to locate your opponents' strategic buildings, deepen your analysis with thematic map views at your disposal, and orchestrate the movements and actions of your "agents" directly in the streets and buildings of the world's capitals and major cities thanks to detailed maps of them.
• Try to provoke the overthrow of foreign heads of state by their own people or in coups d'état, acting through influence or interference. And above all, be vigilant so that this does not happen to you.

• Each character has its own psychological profile that can be influenced by fear, temptation, or stress during on the course of events. Depending on their psychological profile, characters may be more effective in their mission, or easier to influence and turn.
• Most characters also have special abilities due to their role to use wisely. Infiltrate, steal, negotiate contracts, declare martial law, open an embassy, hack a smartphone or a server, investigate, prendre en filature, assassinate…
• Each character can be equipped with additional items and weapons to help him in his mission and owns a smartphone with apps and features.

• As the leader of a nation, you manage a discreet team composed of specialists in their field (Diplomat, Spy, Hacker, Investigator...). Dispatch them on missions around the world and establish your supremacy through espionage, international politics, cyber warfare, media manipulation and trade wars. At any time, you also get the option of launching military operations to repel or defeat your enemies.
• You win the game by being the last leader still standing or by having the highest score in the ranking based on the 5 factors: diplomacy, military conquest, economy, popularity and experience of characters.
• Rich and complex, 4th generation warfare offers immense strategic possibilities to explore. It is up to you to define your red lines and to transgress them.

User reviews
This is early days for the game however the usual faults with this company's previous games seem to be in 4GW. Full of bugs. Warfare makes zero sense. Economics are simple (just sell a few aircraft carriers and you're rich) Diplomacy has no complexity. Yet again another example of this company having an awesome idea but executing it poorly. After hours of playing I still don't truly understand what the objective is.
Personally, I like the geopolitical theme of the game. However, I wouldn't recommend this to anyone. The game has you micromanaging every character under your command; instead of giving characters a mission and off they go, you have to personally order every single step towards a goal, such as assassinating a foreign minister or blowing up an important building. That is very complicated multitasking, multiple times
Here is a game that is not only a successor to, but a potential rival to Power & Revolution. The game has a slight learning curve, but once you begin to figure things out, the possibilities are near limitless (their is a 2.5 hour tutorial/introductory review on youtube that I highly recommend, I found it very much helpful). The AI is intelligent, and foreign nations will take realistic initiatives to secure what is
