Well it is for the genesis, so Sort of, but it's ripping off elements of Necris and Shining force, and I can't remember exactly who did the cutscene warfare genre first.....

Battle Isle had encirclement bonuses; no free hexs = no retreat square for fast units, each additonal friendly unit adjacent to the target provided a 5-10% modifier to the combat results. Or at leats they did by BI2. Artilllery support was only a factor if attacking directly after an firing, in which case it altered the terrain bonus.

The System 3 one with the hippies,gangsters and skinheads right? It was fun, but it was teeth grindly aggravating at times. That game badly needed an alternate difficulty setting.

Go on, I'll have a go at reviving this topic.
Classic ZX Spectrum games
Gunfighter.
Treasure Island Dizzy.
Double Dragon. (I hadn't heard of streets of rage back then).
Stuntbike FX (or something to that effect).
And special mention to Sensible World of Soccer on the PC.

I used to have Double Dragon 3 on my Amiga, which for some reason was completely different to the double dragon 3 on other systems. Oh well, I enjoyed it until Japan, where it crashed.
