“Nostalgia bait of a supposedly legendary rts. Everything is big, armies, maps, build times but that scale comes with the age old classic downside of matches dragging on forever and ever until you have to be unemployed…”
“the game can be as hard or easy as you want it to be. It is really a great game to play to kill time. The only thing it misses is more content, but that can be fixed with mods.”

— a player, Steam review · 1,812 hrs played“Likely the pinnacle of RTS gaming. The map sizes, army capacity, faction diversity, match length; everything is at a scale so perfect for the genre that I'm not sure any other game even competes.”
— a player, Steam review · 59 hrs played“This is the best RTS game of all time. Get ForgedAllianceForever for a community server to enjoy multiplayer. Steep learning curve, disconnects, everybody is retarded. But it is so worth it.”
