A different take on the Fallout series. In this you control not one survivor, but a group of survivors working for the famous Brotherhood of Steel, fighting to rid the wastelands of evil.
You're here to kick mutant ass and chew the last good gum on the planet.
I've never heard of this game...It look's like it would be difficult. Is it first person? And what's with the gum thing? If it was a joke you'll have to forgive me for taking things too seriously^_^'

It's not difficult, it just requires a little thought. It's completely third person, with an isometric style. You control a team of tribals in a post-nuclear world, and you have to lead your team through the game.
The gum thing isn't a joke. There's hardly any chewing gum left on the planet after the nuclear war, so if you find any gum you can chew it and receive temporary bonuses to your skills or sell it for a very good price, about $500 each piece.
I don't know, lol... Rita and I have soo much stuff on this computer right now... I'm aware their different genres, but playtime-wise, how do these games compare to Black & White 2 and Oblivion? _________________

Well, Black and White II is an excellent game, however it has few levels and they are accomplished easily. There are only two major ways to play the game so replay value is at a minimum.
Oblivion is theoretically endless. You can complete every quest, kill every NPC, loot every tomb, become the head of every faction and still be able to roam the land freely, hunting deer.
Fallout Tactics has a limited number of levels, like Black and White II. Each level is not long but requires an IQ higher than room temperature to complete. You'll want to replay each level again and again to discover a better way of completing it.
With regards to play-time, Oblivion is your best bet, but even that can get boring when "everything" has been accomplished.
