Total Annihilation: Commander Pack

A classic with huge balancing problems

TA is a really good game in terms of RTS elements. The micromanagement is still considered to be almost perfect. The thing that destroys this game from being absolutely perfect, is the balance between the player and the enemie AI. I dont have a problem with challenging games/missions but some missions in TA are downright unfair and ill balanced. Almost all missions, where the player has to rely on naval warfare or aerial warfare are absolutely unfair. In naval warfare, the enemy can use ships that can destroy you from 100 miles away while you cant see them. In aerial warfare, the enemy is capable of using exactly the right route, so that his planes wont get shot down. But on the other hand, if you use a perfect route, a few shots from the enemy LLT and you are done for. Do i recommend this game? Yes in terms of RTS experience, but not for players who want to have a fair challenge
