## Description

In _Homeland Defense: National Security Patrol_ the player constructs and
manages a post at the Mexican/American border. The main goal is to stop
smugglers and border jumpers while staying in budget. As with most games of
this kind the player has an empty space to his disposal where he constructs
the infrastructure, e.g. command centers or surveillance buildings, which are
needed for equipment and training the agents.

Each agent has six stats, e.g. intelligence or honesty, which influence their
abilities, e.g. dog handling or healing. These abilities can be improved by
training them – but of course they are not available for duty during that
time. The player assigns tasks to each agent, either permanent ones like
patrol routes or alert status or actions like healing or shooting. The game is
played in real-time and after every day the player receives an info sheet
about his performance and the threats of the next day. There are three
locations for free playing and twelve missions where the player has to reach
certain goals.
