Echelon puts the player in white-knuckle combat over lush alien landscapes and towering cities as a member of an elite fighting force facing a revolution on a colonial outpost. Featuring several branching campaigns and a well-wrought storyline, the player will have the ability to advance from Lieutenant to Commander during his/her battles and assume greater control over how each mission plays out.
A broad range of player craft are included and each type features its own unique flight models ranging from traditional fixed wing aircraft and helicopters, to extraordinary gravity-defying, futuristic hovercraft. These varied flight models allow for robust and challenging tactical combat in both single-player and multi-player offerings yet each mode has been designed to be fully playable with intuitive controls for keyboard, keyboard/mouse, or joystick.
