Overview
Description

Planetary Annihilation lets you colonize solar systems, annihilate homeworlds, and exterminate foes in epic interplanetary battles. With thousands of units and dynamic single‑player campaigns, the scale pushes real‑time strategy to new heights. The game offers powerful tools to control the battlefield, from planet‑destroying asteroids to massive fleets of futuristic war machines. Play solo, compete online, or team up in co‑operative mode across Linux, PC, and Mac.

Supreme Commander 2 is a real‑time strategy game set 25 years after a fragile peace shattered by political assassination. Players command one of three factions—United Earth Federation, Aeon Illuminate, or Cybran Nation—through a story that follows Dominic Maddox, Thalia Kael, and Ivan Brackman as they uncover a hidden threat and the power of Shiva Prime. On the battlefield each player starts with an Armored Command Unit (ACU) and builds mass extractors, power generators, and research facilities to expand their economy and tech. The ultimate goal is to destroy the enemy ACUs in both single‑player skirmishes and multiplayer matches.
