Magnum Games enters the PC gaming market with Beyond the Law: The Third Wave, a squad-based strategy-shooter. Players find themselves responsible for choosing among 50 paramilitary specialists in order to create a super group -- one designed to operate beyond the law.

Merciless mobsters have gathered in New York City, armed with a criminal agenda composed of three phases. Players will lead their group on a series of 20 missions through hostile locations, in an effort to recover control and halt the criminal enterprise. Using bribery, black mail, and corruption, the mobsters have pocketed the city's officials and police force, and have begun operating illegal businesses ranging from prostitution to drug cartels, in order to fund their third and final phase -- a nuclear attack.

Together with a group of highly trained specialists -- such as snipers, ballistics experts, and technicians -- the team must operate in total secrecy to stop the mob from completing their criminal hat trick, and to save the nation's capital from a nuclear disaster. ~ Damian Francis, All Game Guide
