A deeply strategic real-time war game where cunning AI opponents force you to constantly adapt and probe for weaknesses.

What players say

Players praise the branching faction system and deep tech tree, but warn that the game crashes and has bugs on modern PCs. Fans of the original say this version has a skirmish mode instead of a real campaign.
