“2. Alien Arena: Alien Arena is a free, stand-alone first-person
shooter computer game based on source code released by id Software.
The game runs on the CRX engine, and features modern effects such
as real-time lighting and shadows, shaders, light bloom, reflective
surfaces and much more, while still being able to run on even
modest systems. The game includes a built in, as well as external
server browser and chat client. Players can look up their stats
online, chat with other players, and become part of a growing
community. The Alien Arena experience is now a finely tuned, highly
polished body of work. Alien Arena has transformed into a lean,
clean, fragging machine, with stunning visual effects that are
usually reserved for commercial titles.

Soldiers in individual and collective training to their deployment
