About Tom Clancy's Rainbow Six® 3 Gold

✦ AI summary

Lead an elite multinational counter-terrorism squad through globe-trotting missions where you plan tactical strikes and execute them in real-time, clearing rooms of terrorists and defusing threats. Raven Shield and its Athena Sword expansion deliver deep squad-based tactical gameplay with meticulous pre-mission planning, extensive loadout customization, and the tension of orchestrating multi-team operations across exotic locations worldwide.

In Tom Clancy's Rainbow Six 3: Raven Shield, the third installment to the wildly popular Rainbow Six series, Team Rainbow faces the hidden global forces of a new and secretive foe.

Athena Sword:

Track the desperate remnants of the international terror network from Tom Clancy's Rainbow Six® 3: Raven Shield™ into the exotic regions of the Mediterranean and prevent their mad agenda of international anarchy and devastation.

Great tactical shooter. I had a lot of fun with this game. Playing through it and the expansion on the hardest difficulty is pretty extreme. It's unfair and random luck, I hated this game so much for pulling all sorts of crap on me, but when I finally would beat a mission after 50 tries it would be so rewarding and satisfying. This game requires severe precision and timing half the time. One thing which annoys me quite a lot is that each troop is limited to only two items... I need at least four. In a way, it would make it too east perhaps, but when I can only have two items I'm usually picking the best ones – flash grenades and smoke grenades. Also, it's funny that game automatically equips you with masks for chemical bomb levels, but they are useless since after the bombs are launched you always lose, otherwise there is no danger at all without wearing a mask. I suppose you can use masks for tear grenades, but they are thrown at you quite rarely and they only make minor complications. That really annoyed me is that the more I played the main game the more prone to crashing it got. I managed to beat the first few missions with no crashed. Then I'd get 1 crash per mission start,…

How i got it to work. Go to game file- System- right click RavenShield- Properties- Compatibility- compatibility mode- run this program in compatibility mode for Windows XP (service Pack 2)- Go down to Settings- Run in 640 x 480- Run this Program as an administrator. Then, fit apply and launch the game from the folder or create a desktop short cut and launch it from there (launching it from the steam button seemss to not work right).

One of the best games in the R6 series. Siege-garbage will never be that good – just a competitive remnant of what once was a legendary game with the spirit of Tom Clancy stuff of the time. My recommendation for 2026: install the community remaster for the game — new skins, better textures, QoL changes, etc. Totally enjoying the game in 2026. The only problem I always had is the walking controls feel a bit stiff. Otherwise, great tactical game. Just as I remember.
