Hi
I'm looking for a war game (I don't remember if RTS or not) , top view, graphics like Red Alert 1 , estimated time 90's to no later than 2002.
The game is with real soldiers, not robot monsters, etc., I remember in particular a soldier with a metal detector (A long stick with a device at the end) who entered a fenced minefield area to discover mines.
Hope someone has a faint idea of what I'm talking about.

Jagged Alliance.

it's Look like, but I'm not sure.
Are you sure there was a mine detector there?

Yup.
Fenced mine area may also suggest JA Deadly Games or JA2

"Korea: Forgotten Conflict "maybe? It's a Commandos clone (not a very good one), and it also had a sapper character with a minesweeper, other parts of the description seems to fit too.

Too 'new'...

Ok. I mean do you see the character with a detector in 'top view' mode?

So is a game with a top-down perspective and pure 2d graphics right? I wanted to add a shadow company to the list but in case it is pure 2d the description would not fit at all. Shadow Company has a free 3d camera.
