Line 45:
* [[Multiple Endings]]: ''S3'' has two, depending on which version of the final mission you choose. ''H&S'' takes this [[Up to Eleven]].
* [[Narm]]: Most of the voice acting.
* [[No Campaign for Thethe Wicked]]: Averted in ''S2'' - you can play as the Axis. However, the game remains largely the same regardless of which side you pick, as you wind up primarily battling Thor's Hammer anyway.
** Possibly averted in ''H&S'', depending on whether or not you think the Soviets are 'Wicked'.
* [[Numbered Sequel]]: Played with in a way. The first game is called ''S2'', and there is no ''S1''. The main reason for this is because an abbreviated form of the game's title, ''Silent Storm'', would be ''"[[Unfortunate Implications|SS]]"''. Subsequently, the expansion's title, which contained [[Added Alliterative Appeal|three words beginning with S]], was abbreviated as ''S3'' to preserve the same scheme, despite being neither a sequel nor the third game produced in the series.
Line 63:
* [[Unfortunate Implications]]: Intentionally averted by the publisher, who chose the short title "S2" instead of just abbreviating the full title.
* [[Useless Useful Stealth]]: The Scout class can sneak about rather well, but as with most Turn-Based games this usually gets you killed. However, once you discover how many knives and shuriken you can throw in a single turn or obtain [[Hollywood Silencer|silenced firearms]], neither of which break stealth, everything changes.
* [[We Cannot Go Onon Without You]]: Any member of your squad can be [[Killed Off for Real]] - but if it happens to your [[Player Character]] (i.e. the squad leader), it's game over.
* [[Your Head Asplode]]: Any ranged attack to the head (including throwing knives) can potentially cause this in ''S3''.
