“You’re the world’s deadliest soldier, a precise and efficient
killing machine that the military denies all knowledge of.
Departing from the military, your services become the tools of
survival as the ultimate hired mercenary, where you now take orders
from secret government agencies that they consider too hot to
handle. The elusive world of covert operations and guerilla warfare
are at your feet–do you have what it takes to be Soldier of
Fortune?”
“Soldier of Fortune (SoF) is a fast-paced, first person
action-shooter based on the popular mercenary magazine of the same
name. SoF runs on Raven’s modified Quake II engine, and with
thanks to the porting efforts of Loki Entertainment Software, SoF
is now available to the Linux community.“
“The story of SoF goes a little something like this: you take on
the role of John Mullins, an ex-elite soldier who served three
tours of Vietnam. Retiring from the military, Mullins moved into
the “mercenary-for-hire” business with a few wartime buddies,
taking orders from the U.N. anti-terrorist group known only as “The
Shop.”
