Gaming News - July 2004
New York, NY (July 2, 2004) - Kuma\War announced today that it has
released its latest mission, Mosul: The al Qaeda Connection, based on an actual
U.S. Army operation in Mosul, Iraq.
From Kuma\War:
In Mosul: The al Qaeda Connection, The U.S. Army’s efforts to flush out
insurgents in Iraq yields a terrorist safe house connected to bin Laden ally,
Abu Musab al-Zarqawi. Zarqawi, leader of the Zarqawi terror network, has either
claimed responsibility or been blamed for most of the major attacks and
kidnappings in Iraq in recent months, including the beheading of American Nick
Berg. In this mission, player’s will command a 101st Airborne Division fire team
as they move through hostile urban terrain and take down the terror cell.
Armed with advice from U.S. Army Staff Sergeant Dan Snyder and other background
information from Kuma’s team of military experts, in Mosul: The al Qaeda
Connection players must use proper squad tactics to clear rooms and secure
buildings as they experience MOUT (Military Operations in Urban Terrain). The
intense firefights require a combination of good discipline and fast reflexes as
Mosul: The al Qaeda Connection displays first-hand the multi-faceted,
split-decision events real-world soldiers experience every day.
“Our goal at Kuma\War is to provide a unique window into real war news. We offer
our subscribers information on key events from the war using an original news
show, wire service videos, intel packs, maps and satellite images and advice
from military staff advisors that they otherwise would not have access to,” said
Kuma Reality Games CEO Keith Halper. “No other computer game online provides the
type of authentic combat experiences within a game environment that we can.”
Every month, online subscribers can expect to receive at lease three new
missions that further explore the explosive situation in Iraq, including
downloadable game missions in Baghdad's Sadr City and more deadly clashes with
al- Zarqawi militants. The Kuma\War online game service will also portray the
border region between Afghanistan and Pakistan.
The Kuma\War online game service is available for free download and game demo at
www.kumawar.com or can be
purchased for a $9.99 monthly subscription fee. As a salute to the men and women
in uniform who have served their countries, Kuma Reality Games will donate $1 of

assist the families of the nation's fallen heroes killed in duty.
