Brings what grabs you about Machines at War 3: economy and management, a sci-fi setting as well as tactical depth.

A real-time strategy game set in the Star Wars universe where you lead the Rebellion or the Empire across a galaxy map, fighting space and ground battles, even wielding the Death Star. It skips resource gathering to focus on fleet management and battles.

Total Annihilation

Economy and management

A landmark real-time strategy game where the Arm and Core factions clash in massive robot wars. Flowing resource management and true 3D units and terrain set a high bar for the genre.

Supreme Commander 2

Economy and management

A sci-fi real-time strategy game where you build an economy around your powerful commander unit, field huge armies and destroy the enemy commander. Research trees and large-scale battles are the focus.

Star Wars: Galactic Battlegrounds

Economy and management

A classic real-time strategy game built on the Age of Empires formula, bringing base building and army command to the Star Wars universe. You lead factions like the Empire, Rebels, Gungans or Trade Federation through campaigns and skirmishes.

Supreme Commander

Economy and management

A colossal real-time strategy game with huge maps, seamless strategic zoom, and hundreds of land, sea and air units, capped by game-changing experimental superweapons. Three warring human factions battle for the galaxy in the Infinite War.

Perimeter

Sci-fi setting

An unusual real-time strategy game where you terraform the ground to build bases and defend them with protective perimeter shields. You command huge nanobot armies on deformable maps against the AI or other players.

Earth 2160

Economy and management

A sci-fi real-time strategy game set on Mars where you build bases, design your own units and lead one of three very different factions in a struggle for dominance.

Command & Conquer: Generals

Realistic visuals

A classic near-future real-time strategy game pitting the USA, China and the GLA against each other with sharply asymmetric playstyles. General powers, destructible environments and a lasting multiplayer scene keep it a fan favorite.

Command & Conquer

Economy and management

The landmark RTS that defined the genre: harvest Tiberium, build bases and wage tank battles as GDI or Nod, tied together by campy full-motion video cutscenes starring the iconic Kane. Frank Klepacki's driving soundtrack completes the package.

Aeon Command

Economy and management

You command your mother ship to gather resources and produce fleets in a tug-of-war struggle for the Aeon Nebel. Pick one of three factions and push through a 24-mission campaign that unlocks upgrades as you go.
