9th Company Roots of Terror is an action-oriented real-time strategy game based on actual events that took place during the Soviet military campaign in Afghanistan. 9th Company follows the story of a ragged band of young recruits undergoing brutal training in Uzbekistan’s Fergana Valley and culminates with a bloody stand against the Mujahideen warriors on a nameless mountain top in Afghanistan. It’s the Battle of Thermopylae all over again: one Russian fighter against 10 Afghanis! 9th Company recreates in detail the events that took place during the last large-scale Soviet military operation. Few know the history: the 9th Company of the 345th Guards Airborne Regiment came under heavy fire on “Hill 3234” on January 7th, 1988. They managed to stop several attacks by an estimated 400 Mujahideen and Pakistani mercenaries and held their position for two gory days. The company lost 6 men, and the remaining 28 of the total 39 were wounded. Two 9th Company soldiers were posthumously awarded the Golden Star medal and the title of Soviet Hero.

I picked up this Russian made RTS game in the Steam sale. The game is a tactical level RTS that follows the the 9th Company of the 345th OPPD through 9 years of warfare in Afghanistan against the insurgents and yes it is the same 9th Company in the film 9th Company. The game even has clips from the film. The campaign is good but short and you do a nice variety of missions. The tutorial at the start is comprehensive enough for you to get a quick grasp of the controls. It also has some nice realistic elements. Soldiers can get injured and can't fight until attended by a medic and if you're not fast enough may die from their injuries. You also get off screen support fro missions such as D-30 artillery strikes, rocket artillery and Hind CAS (all of which are extremely deadly) and so on. If you lose your radioman you lose your access to support. For some missions you get armoured vehicles to
Pros: ✅ I can only recommend this game if you buy it on sale (I paid 2 euros). Otherwise skip it. ✅ Cool ragdoll physics. I loved destroying buildings and watching enemies fly 20 meters into the air from artillery strikes. ✅ Unique missions. ✅ The enemy can be extremely dangerous at times. Half of your squad can be wiped out in a matter of seconds by a surprise attack. The game definitely doesn't hold your hand. ✅ The Mil Mi-24 is an absolute beast. ✅ The reward system makes you actually care about the soldiers under your command and encourages you to keep them alive. Cons: ❌ Numerous bugs, including game breaking mission progression issues that may require workarounds or restarting missions. ❌ I understand that the game takes place in Afghanistan and not in a lush environment, but all the maps look the same. ❌ There are literally only a few songs in the entire game. It gets qui
The only game about the Soviet-Afghan war that I know of.
I just wish this game is a bit more polished with less bugs. There are a whole bunch that you will meet when you playing though the story and if it happens you have to load from preivous saves. The graphics for this game is actually pretty good with movie clips in it too. The music is fine but not super. The control is a bit wacked but manageble. The fight is actually really fun. You have to fight enemy of over whelming numbers. IT's a RTS that in will keep you pretty busy. I guess for a low budget game it's pretty fine in it's own right but if the game company had more money i am sure this game can be improved much further. 7/10 for scoring. I don't recommend people to buy this game unless it's in a discount or in a package. IF you already own it.. give it a chance and try it out. ignore the low rating.
9th Company: Roots of Terror is a good game. As a low budget game it has its lot of shortcomings but the overall feeling is positive. The controls are a bit difficult to master and the camera movement is a nightmare, making command and control of the your units quite difficult. The sound is supposed to start at a calm and boring theme and goes to a sudden agitated attack one when you make contact with the enemy, in order to convey the feeling of a low intensity guerrilla war - where dangers lurks at every corner and the "Dukhi" can hit you at any time. The graphics are good and the uniform and equipment are expertly done. The game mechanics are realistic and give a proper feeling of the tactical abilities and limitations of the means employed by the player on the map. Like the difference of using a wheeled vehicle to a tracked one. You have to save often, because this is a difficult g
has a good potential yet the balance ruins the experience. the afghan militias are highly trained soldiers that simply overcome our highly trained soviet neighbors which I find pretty unrealistic. sure they were trained by US special forces, but does not immediately turn themselves as US special forces. I was thinking more of outgunned, outnumbered angry militias and we get to assault, or defense, but instead I get to face expert shooters sometimes even better than our friendly red army. Aside from difficulty, I would recommend it.
