General Chaos Holy Crap, way to many amazing things I have to say about this game, it could possibly be the top 5 best multiplayer games to date. This game feeds off the competitive instincts brotherly have or sisterly if you happen to be some cool ass dames and quenches the thirst when you aim your bazooka to cause total destruction.

General Chaos is a 1994 video game developed by Game Refuge Inc. And published by Electronic Arts for the Sega Genesis.
General Chaos is a satirical arcade/strategy game.The game is a quick and dirty battle (or a longer campaign mode that is a series of battles fought over a dynamic strategic map) between two generals, 'General Chaos' and 'General Havoc'. The objective of the game is to capture the enemy's capital city.Each player has to pick one of 4 teams, 3 of which have 5 soldiers (with differing selections weapons), while one has 2 'commandos' and uses a different control system giving greater control.The player views the action from an isometric perspective, watching cartoony soldiers duke it out on the battlefield. The game features a balance between action and strategy. For instance, whenever two soldiers on opposite sides get close enough, close combat will ensue. The soldiers can punch, kick, or block the attack. If one of the player's men loses all his health points, he will fall down on the ground.
To help the fallen soldier, the player must move the cursor, or another soldier in the case of the commandos, close to the injured soldier and call out for a medic to revive him. However, there is a limit on the number of times that a medic may be called. There are also many items that yield points on the battlefield to pick up.With a multiplayer adapter (or appropriate settings in the emulator), up to four people can play simultaneously against the computer in campaign mode where each battle is more difficult than the last. The player can also fight other human players without co-operation. Another feature of the game is the tutorial mode called “boot camp” which is the recruit training, this mode explains all the basics of gameplay and user interface in a clear-cut manner.The director of Hogan's Heroes TV series filed a lawsuit in 1994 based on some of the quotations used in the game.
Klink's infamous line, was used when a soldier was flame broiled on the battlefield. The suit flopped a few months later and EA recovered the blow.clarification needed.

Another feature of the game is the tutorial mode called “boot camp”.Classes Gunner: Uses a as weapon. The well-rounded unit of the game with a medium-range attack and high rate of fire though his gun might jam. It is used primarily for attacking. This characters wears a hairstyle.Launcher: Uses a handheld as a weapon.
While the game lacks a 'sniper' character, the launcher serves essentially the same purpose with a powerful, slow-firing, long-range weapon. The launcher's attack can be stopped by cover but may randomly result in an 'instant death' of an opposing combatant (reduced to a skeleton and therefore can't call a medic). Can destroy bonus objective targets. This characters wears a helmet.Chucker: are the weapon of this class. Their attack has a low rate of fire and is easily avoidable but the grenade goes over cover, can damage multiple units, and has good range.
Can destroy bonus objective targets. The name and the appearance of this unit (a bearded, blonde man with a -style headband) is a clear reference to.Scorcher: Possibly the most dangerous unit in the game, these soldiers use a to do damage which, despite having the shortest range, can hit multiple soldiers and is the fastest weapon. Once a Scorcher is on top of another unit, it is very difficult to survive. Because of this capability, they make excellent flanking and escort units. Attack may randomly result in an 'instant death' of an opposing combatant (reduced to a pile of ash and therefore can't call a medic).
If the Scorcher goes into water, his weapon will be temporarily disabled (indicated by bubbles being shot out instead of fire). He wears a pair of dark glasses.Blaster: Considered the weakest unit in the game and needs to be protected. The Blaster is similar to the Chucker. Instead of using grenades, they throw a bunch of sticks which goes over cover and inflicts heavy damage. However, they have an extremely slow rate of fire and the second shortest attack range, so they are not as useful. Attack may randomly result in an 'instant death' of an opposing combatant (reduced to a skeleton and therefore can't call a medic).
Can destroy bonus objective targets. This character wears an, beard and his smile lacks some teeth.Kickstarter campaign On September 6, 2013 Brian F. Colin started a Kickstarter campaign in order to fund a sequel. The campaign fell more than $100,000 short of its goal. Reception General Chaos received generally positive reviews. Gave the game an 8 out of 10, calling it 'the ultimate!'
They praised the humor, wealth of options, and four-player mode. Likewise praised the humor and the four-player mode, as well as the enemy AI, and summarized that ' General Chaos combines brain-squeezing battlefield strategy, challenging squad tactics, and real-time button-pressing combat with humorous cartoon graphics.'
