    this is the most balanced rts game available currently, it still gets constant updates, and also has the best tech tree ive ever seen in an rts game. if you think starcraft is good, this is much better.

      This game is indeed still one of the best. The balance was already superb in the past. But they kept tweaking and twitching the nobs. I stopped playing when version 2.6 was out. But I heared that 4.0 has been around for a while. Might return at a certain point.

    Something to note when playing the campaign: the first mission does not have a timer. It will keep running until you snag the last artifact. You can exploit this by destroying all the scavengers, then just letting the game run for a few hours (or overnight). This will slowly build up a large stockpile of power that will last pretty far into the campaign.
    Underhanded, but technically not cheating.

      Old comment, but its worth noting that in the most recent remaster project version (available on the microsoft store for free) it simulates how much power you would accumulate in missions once you finish with excess time and gives you that much. i.e. if you are making 5 power per second and finish a mission with 60 minutes to go on the timer, it will start you next mission with an extra 18,000 power

    Warzone was so ahead of its time. The ability to free build anywhere with trucks especially. Which more or less was not seen again until generals came out, years later.
    I first completed warzone when I was about 10 or 12. A true master piece, I later went on to play generals a few years later when that came out.
    Loved the free build in both titles. I really dislike proximity build mechanics in rts games.

    The answer to the visual "GLITCH" pressing f12 activates the radius descriptor....showing sensor tower range and weapon range....activate it and trucks shows construction distance....it shows usefully if your defenses like bombards....of the choke point your sensor tower is supposed to cover.... actually covers it so on and so forth. Blue is utility distance and orange is weapon range 😊

    So I stumbled across this video looking for a quite similar game, I remember it having a similar name but with 600 or 6000 in the title. Basically me as a kid looking for free to play games found this game where you indeed pretty much did the same thing you do here, there even were 4 factions differentiated by colors. I particularly remember how you had to set up refineries with little trucks that would go get coal and bring it back. If you advanced quite enough you could build planes and nukes.
    I can’t remember for the life of me what this game was originally called, thinking of it looks like a free to play parody/imitation of this one, if anyone knows then please do tell.

    A simple and humble, yet good review. (the game doesn't have mammoth tanks, but heavy bodies :) )
    I still have the original disks. Version 1.00
    There are 2 major differences with the free online version.
    1. VTOL cheat. Design a VTOL, the put tracks on the tank. You now got a tank with a VTOL weapon. These weapons fire faster and harder. And practically make your units twice to 10 times as strong. Also, it remains funny to see a tank with a bombing bay on it :D.
    2. The skirmish only goes till the first 5 bodies, 3 Alpha and 2 Paradigm bodies. You need to finish the campaign if you want the skirmish to be upgraded. I personally never tested this.

    I've been playing an outdated version of this game for a while now, beating the hard campaign two or three times, and only recently got it on Steam for another run. What I didn't expect is that, in the Steam version, the enemy is constantly attacking you in every mission rather than waiting for you to come. In the old versions, there were a few initial attacks with some units going for hit&run tactics, and that was that. Once you dealt with these units, you could just prepare a massive force and roll over every base, they didn't even rebuild their forces.
    I made it up to the end of Beta campaign where you have to survive until Nexus launches a nuke. I spent the whole Beta campaign not caring about my defenses so it was impossible for me to hold the Collective's forces for long enough, and because of how the campaign works in this game I couldn't do much without starting the whole thing over. I think next time I play this game I'm gonna play on normal difficulty before trying on hard, it was still a lot of fun, and maybe my top 2 RTS of all time (the first being Supreme Commander 1)
