Early '90s first person shooter

Question

I'm trying to figure out the name of an old first person shooter-ish game (although, I don't remember any actual enemies) from early-mid '90s. Here's what I can remember:

• First person
• Many vehicles, including at least a jeep that you could get into and drive
• I think you could throw a grenade of some sort
• Low polygon
• The name was similar to 'Flames of Freedom' I think
• I'm pretty sure I played it on the old 486 (probably in DOS)

Answer

Are you sure it wasn't Flames of Freedom (aka Midwinter 2: Flames of Freedom)? Seems to be exactly what you're describing, and was on DOS

You are a covert operative for the Atlantic Federation. Your mission is to conduct assassinations, enlist rebels and sabotage the Saharans operations in the slave isles. As you carry out these open-ended missions, the islands will rebel and aid your efforts when the Saharan invasion finally comes.

Flames of freedom uses the same engine as Midwinter for land, air, and sea travel (and combat) but now, you control only a single customizable character. A strategic map allows you to identify key islands for your cause and determine the mission objectives that will sway it's population to your cause. Then, it's up to you to head in and carry out the mission as you see fit (perhaps guns first, perhaps with a big bag of money, perhaps just relying on your charm).

Flames of Freedom mixes first person action with strategy, vehicle combat, and diplomacy for a unique gaming experience that carries on the Midwinter legacy.
