85 / 100"This excellent wargame/real-time strategy hybrid embodies the best of both worlds while destroying ours in a hypothetical Cold War-goes-hot setting."
Eurogamer

IGN
80 / 100"It's fun, competitive, and features short sessions that normally last under a half-hour. If you're an RTS gamer looking for a new battlefield, you'll definitely want to give...

A pretty fun RTS game. Despite being an old game. It still holds up to this day despite there being better wargame games out there.

Cool military simulation type RTS game. Large selection of military equipment and meticulous attention to realism. Got it for the singleplayer campaign because multiplayer is dead.

While only the first game in a much longer series, this is a great entry point for those curious about Eugen's Wargame series, as I was. The clear presentation and great feedback on-screen make it easy to tell what's going on at any given time. Veteran wargamers and newcomers alike will enjoy the depth provided by each unit's stats and variety.
