Russia is in disarray, but unknowingly sits on a mineral that could see her rule the world. This mineral, Siberite, is a catalyst for Cold Fusion. America knows about Siberite and sets out to make sure that it never falls into Russian hands.
Take control of US marines sent on a one-way trip into the past to move the Siberite into American territory or command Russian troops to go back and keep it where it is. Whatever you decide, beware the Arab mercenaries who only want to see the Siberite destroyed!
In game you can train a team of different members specializing as soldiers, mechanics, scientists or engineers. You can also build vehicles of your own design or you can steal hi-tech plans from your opponent. Everything is up to you in this mix of role playing and real time strategy.
The future is in your capable hands, soldier!
Features:
Rewrite the history of the future by battling your rivals in the past
A great, complex plot in which even individual units have a backstory of their own
Change your units’ specializations to better suit the needs of the battlefield
Legacy version of Original War is also included. It supports operating systems older than Windows 7.
Just WOW.
Played it for a little bit only, and all I can say is that I'm ashamed for not playing this game before, not only that, I really don't remember if I've ever heard of this game before.
All good I can say about the game has been already told by others.
Just buy the game and you won't regret it.
this game`s research tree is its charm. the modifications done by patches is very useful, while retaining the original version of the game. if there was similar games, i would buy them, as long as there is multiplayer. this one does have that. the ability to design a multiplayer character is also a plus. i had to purchase it twice on disc, because i broke a disc by accident.
This is a unique Game. You have to Micromanage all the Units you have. All of them.
It's like a mix of C&C and Commandos. It's more like Commandos but less complex. I did not like Commandos tbh...
Losses feel significant and they are. They do have way more of an Impact then in like Starcraft Singleplayer.
But if you like Commandos, it maybe is worth a try after some Research.
Price is, in my Opinion, ok.
This Game is not my Cup of Tea.
I remember when my mom bought me this game in a store, i chose it beuacse it has a cool 3 wheel car on a cover
back then i didnt know it will be one of the most important game of my life
game with good visuals even now after 20 years, great gameplay and story, good replayable abilities, i use to try evryoutcome, check what happen if i lose "important soldier" in a mission and see if it influence my future gameplay
its less than 1 euro i can recomended it for evry rts fan u wont be disapointed
