I used to play this game 15 years ago on windows xp. It's great to relive the same fun again after all this time. I love it
My favorite RTS since like 2004. Somehow I still fire it up periodically 20+ years since I first played it on my Win XP desktop.
Timeless but aging strategy game that fits more content into any given hour you play than most games ever could. There are plenty of modern strategy games that can show this game up in many many departments however this game remains as one of the best ways to spend 25-60 minutes.
