Steambirds: Survival (flash) is a sequel to Steambirds, the steampunk turn-based shooter, and is as addictive as patent medicine.

Very, very cool. The planning out and then initiating your moves reminds me of Risk

Very interesting, but what does this have to do with 60 Minutes?

Correct me if I'm wrong, but I don't recall Risk having simultaneous turn resolution. Steambirds is like a flash-based Wings of War.
