Modern Military stragey turn-based or RTS


Recommended Posts

I don't have a lot of time for gaming, but I'm looking for a nice RTS or turn-based modern military game.

I've had the most fun with the Jagged Alliance Series. I have also liked the (older) style of warefare in the Total War series (though, I'm sure my computer won't run the newer ones).

I've tried to play the C&C games but the units and controls, IMO, suck. I'm not a huge RTSer anyways. I haven't really like Age of Empires. Company of Heroes is a blast but I end up having to cheat on the later levels.

I've played some FPSes (COD4) but most are hardly somewhat realistic. My fav is Op Flashpoint. AARMA is seriously FSCK'd though.

I still play Rise of Nations and highly recommend it especially for the later modern/advanced age military units. The civilizations are also very rich and detailed.

World in Conflict. Set in the 1980s, it's a military RTS based on a conflict between the US and Russia. The game is based on DirectX 10 so you'll need a fairly decent gaming computer to enjoy it at reasonable graphics settings. I'm talking a high end video card and quad core CPU.

Tom Clancy's EndWar (PC). The game isn't out yet but like WiC, it's a military RTS based on a conflict between the US/EU and Russia. It's set in the near future (less than a decade from now). According to Gamespot, the release date is Feb. 24th 2009.
