Fire Power (also Firepower) is a military-themed multidirectional shooter developed by Silent Software for the Amiga. It was published in 1987 by MicroIllusions. An MS-DOS port was released in 1988, followed by versions for the Apple IIGS and Commodore 64 in 1989. The player drives a tank through a large, scrolling landscape containing enemy bases. The goal is to capture the flag from inside each while rescuing prisoners of war and destroying the enemy's structures.
