In 14 more days, half of that remaining half will decay, and so on. If a radioisotope has a half-life of 14 days, half of its atoms will have decayed within 14 days. The half-life is the amount of time it takes for a given isotope to lose half of its radioactivity. The rate of nuclear decay is also measured in terms of half-lives. The radioactive decay of certain number of atoms (mass) is exponential in time. This constant probability may vary greatly between different types of nuclei, leading to the many different observed decay rates. This constant is called the decay constant and is denoted by λ, “lambda”. Give it a shot, and see what fits, what doesn’t and offer the developing team your two cents on the matter.The radioactive decay law states that the probability per unit time that a nucleus will decay is a constant, independent of time. On a closing note, Lambda Wars is definitely a good addition to the Half-Life universe. Lead the rebels to victory or use the Combine forces to crush humanity I mean, Dog would have been awesome to see in a fight against a strider. A good deal of strategy is needed to turn the tides of a battle in your favor but after a few games, things might seem a bit repetitive and this is where the lack of more units might be felt. In Lambda Wars you have a good deal of units to use on both sides, each with their special touches and fights between the two factions are totally enjoyable. Gameplay is solid, animations are undeniably smooth, effects are great, factions seem to be pretty well balanced and after a few minutes into a game, when the first shots are fired, you can’t help but enjoy the Half-Life 2 audio with the C&C: Generals feel of it all. Right now, it’s hard to say when or if Lambda Wars will evolve into a full-time RPG with all the polished perks it needs but it’s giving all the right signals. On the other hand, if you’re a hardcore fan of the HL2 universe, you will certainly encounter moments when Lambda Wars won’t really measure up. If you’re a fan, you might just love the idea and the game will get you hooked pretty fast, especially since it offers plenty of maps, several game modes and best of all, the chance to challenge other HL fans from around the world. If you were to take gameplay alone, the game doesn't seem all that interesting but be serious, this is a Half-Life inspired RTS, you can’t really go wrong with it.
You get Source Engine graphics neatly packed into an RTS that pitches you in the war between the Rebels and the dreaded Combine.įollowing the classic RTS gameplay blueprints, in Lambda Wars you need to build a base, upgrade your tech while creating an army, scout the enemy position and figure out an attack plan. This has been in the works for a while now and so far, even though it’s still in early development, it looks just great.
Since we’re all waiting for Half-Life 3 to come along and we know Valve is taking its time (you can’t rush perfection), why not try something interesting in the meantime? Here’s Lambda Wars, a Source Engine mod that takes you into the world of Half-Life 2 from an RTS point of view. Added badges for tournament players who participated and those who received respective places.Advanced/Professional players requested that the prices are changed for better competitive gameplay. Changed the prices for control points on Lvl 1 and Lvl 2.
