Doom: The Battle For Mars is a real-time strategy game set in the Doom universe. The player controls a UAC army of marines and robots. The aim of the player is to eliminate the opposing demonic forces.
The player builds various buildings such as barracks, radar domes, mineral pumps,tech centers and oxygen storage in order to eliminate the demon opposition.
The player uses several variants of the marine for combat, such as majors that wield plasma guns, bomber that carry rocket launchers, BFG gunners and commanders carrying chainguns, as well as medics that will heal units. In addition to the marines, the player can also construct robots and cyborgs as well as UAC aerospace fighters to engage the enemy.
The demon forces consist of several known-and-new faces,including spider masterminds, pinkie demons, imps, cyber-demons and archviles, with the new faces being hell lords, paladins, stone imps, soul collector and fire demons. The game play a bit different that most RTS games, the player must use an energizer ship to harvest energy from certain types of trees, and that energy, will power the mineral pumps that give the player money to build his/her army. Energy is also used in the creation of certain units, such as the major and BFG.
Newest version is Beta 3. On 27.8.07 the project was officially cancelled.
