Wonder if the developers were aware of...

War is a Racket, which (I think) has a similar view on capitalism and the military-industrial complex and war. --80.47.106.229 18:30, 26 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

WP:VG assessment

This article's coming along very nicely, though I think this is still Start-Class. Most articles at this level need major cleanup because they're usually too game-guide-esque, but that's not the case here. Hence, by addressing many of the more major points here you could get up to B: the two main things holding this article back are lack of citations and lack of important information.

The two screenshots should send alarm bells flashing, as they have watermarks in. This is a big no-no. Fair use rationales could do with expansion - WP:FURG.
You don't need to make Iron Storm bold each time it's mentioned. There's no need to make a game's title bold after its first mention.
There's no need to have sub-headings in the Factions section. The amount of text there is means that it's not really useful.
Try to merge any one- and two-sentence paragraphs: short paragraphs make the prose seem more choppy and less pleasant to read.
This article needs more citations - WP:CITE.
Also, you might want to convert citations to use the relevant citation template - WP:CITET.
You could quite happily stick the World War Zero and Sequels section in one section under the heading "Releases and sequels".
Reception section needs expansion: have a look at the Reception sections listed at WP:VG#Example articles to get an idea of what to include.
Is there any information which could be used for a development section? If not, have a look at those example articles to get an idea of what to include.
Lead needs expansion per WP:LS: summarise everything in the article in two or three paragraphs.

If you have any further questions don't hesitate to ask. Hope this helps, Una Laguna^Talk 07:02, 4 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Flag

I replicated the flag of Russo-Mongolia which may be of use to the article.

Saturn Game

There is a Sega Saturn game by working designs, released much earlier, around 97, with the same title, it was a pretty good strategy-risk style game. I found it on Daisenryaku maybe there should be a link near the top of the article or disambiguation. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 74.70.204.170 (talk) 04:13, 27 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Infobox

In the Infobox, the "Platform(s)" field specifies "PC". I think that the "Platform(s)" field should specify a value or values from the " Supported platforms" section of the Vgclegend template. For example, if Iron Storm only runs on MS-DOS, then Iron Storm's Infobox should specify "DOS" in the "Platform(s)" field. ProResearcher (talk) 00:54, 14 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Sound problem?

The reception portion of the article mentions a "sound problem that never got fixed" but no where else in the article is it mentioned. I haven't played the game so I can't fix it. I'm hoping someone else can. Thanks. --208.14.216.14 (talk) 22:12, 23 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]
