Blitzy WW2 RTS with arcadey vibes. Big endgame unit stacks and early game rushes galore - requires tactics not strategy and kinda rocks.
Edit: It is abandoneware today, so indie RUSE 2 step up.
One of the greatest and most unique RTS games ever. Hours upon hours have been played with friends with every game being a different experience. This needs to be released to the public again!
Honest one of the most memorable games to due to all the explosions and how BOMBASTIC it was, I love being able to order literal army paratroopers to drop at my command even they didn't all make to the drop point it was truly spectacle for the eyes to behold chaos the explosive visual seeing massive arty barrages or seeing planes fall form the heavens it was beautiful and frustrating when i loss and that was just the demo i kept playing until couldn't anymore
we need this game back Ubisoft. Simple, tactical and a endless level of fun, makes this game to one of the best strategy games ever developed.
Hower we need a new platform, that new player can play and get the game .
Sadly this is the most unique RTS WW2 style I have see in my life, and there is no prolongation like R.U.S.E. 2 they even have get it off all stores, it's crazy...
One of my first and favorite RTS games on the Xbox 360.
great gameplay, impressive graphics, and unique features, one of my all time favorites as a life long RTS fan.

HackerThe player must attempt to hack into the Magma, Ltd. computer system at the beginning of the game by guessing the logon password. Access can be gained if the player knows the password, which really only ever becomes apparent to the player after gaining access, through another means of entry, to the later stage of the game. Typing help or h in the command line would give a clue as to what the valid password is. Since initial attempts at entry would consist of guessing (and likely failing) access would eventually be granted to the player due a malfunction in the security system, thus allowing the player entry. Once admittance has been made, the player is then asked to identify various parts of a robot unit, by pointing the cursor at the relevant parts and pressing the fire button. Most parts of the unit have exotic and technical names, such as "asynchronous data compactor" or "phlamson joint" -- this again, allows for more room of error by initially trying to guessing which part each name belongs to. Failure to identify each part correctly and without any error, forces the player to take a retest until a 100 percent identification is made, at which point, the player is then allowed to continue.
The player guides this robot, as seen on the Apple II version of the game, through the extensive network of underground tunnels.
The player gains control of the robot which can travel around the globe via secret tunnels, deep within the earth. The game's text says the robot is powered in some manner by magma.
Before getting far, the player is informed that shredded portions of a secret document containing Magma, Ltd.'s plans for world domination have been stolen. The player is instructed to retrieve the document by bargaining with the spies who stole it, who are located at various locations throughout the globe. The player is warned it must be retrieved in order to prevent the US government from thwarting their plans. At this point, the player's objective is clear: retrieve the strips of the stolen document, but then deliver them to Washington DC.
The robot's tunnel system is extensive, but unmarked, so getting around is initially an exercise in trial and error. Throughout the globe, there are several cities where the robot can surface and interact with people, primarily the spies who want to bargain for their piece of the evidence.Thriller

As the player plays through a mission, the in-game EVA, or Electronic Video Assistance, periodically updates with mission objectives. EVA logs and updates all objectives and their current status. Objectives are categorized into three categories: primary, secondary and tertiary. The completion of primary objectives are crucial for that mission's success. Secondary objectives are not required for mission completion, but may assist in game play. Tertiary missions, which are usually hidden, do not assist much in game play, but will affect your final "rank" at the end of each mission.Action Fantasy Historical Science fiction
