Sci-Fi? Fantasy? Excellent RTS in your favorite flavor!

Real-Time Strategy fans, here's a yummy deal for you: Total Annihilation Series, that is the futuristic Total Annihilation: Commander Pack and fantasy-flavored Total Annihilation: Kingdoms (+ Expansion), is available up to 70% off today, on GOG.com. That's only $1.79 for each of the games if you get them both, or if you already have one and you complete your collection.

Time stood still. The fate of the realm was hanging by a thread. The armies stood in the field in absolute silence, as if every soul paused their breath, carefully eyeing the adversary force. Each and every soldier knew that they would leave this field today only in victory, or glorious death reserved for the brave. The beast of war feasted on deaths of thousands for years now, getting bigger, nastier, and more powerful with every fallen warrior. Now, it was ready to consume the best of the best, the ones that managed to survive all the strife so far. This was the climax of a conflict raging for years. A conflict, that wouldn't end any other way, than complete destruction of one of the sides. All was settled that day, and for some time the beast of war would slumber, satisfied and full. But as the decades pass, it would wake up again. And again. And again. The swords would be replaced with plasma cannons and tanks, but the beast would always wake up hungry.

justanoldgamer: Bought Kingdom to complete the "collection". I don't even like TA but so many people love it that I feel I must be playing it wrong or something. My biggest problem with it is that all the units look the same to me.
We must share a brain. :P I've been trying to enjoy this game for years now to no avail and I'm guessing that finally having it disc and bug free maybe I'll develop a new appreciation for it.

I will say I totally disagree with you assessment of the units looking the same, BS! The big blue and grey blocks are clearly bigger than the small blue and grey blocks! If that isn't a major difference I don't know what is!

I have that same problem with Green Day. I just had to accept the fact that not everything is for everyone. :)

That is a minor difference. They're still blue and grey blocks!

Yeah I was being sarcastic. Wait till you play Kingdoms, you don't even have the size differential to help.

I know you was. ;)

That might have to wait a bit, but someday i'll get through the huge backlog of games i've bought on gog this month. It'll be a real achievement! :D
