Unfortunately I missed to include the Wargame series in this list. My bad and my apologies it should've been there.
Only the OG's would know the obscure military RTS known as R.U.S.E
Then I must be a real old OG. I got R.U.S.E. still in disk (retail ) version. LOL Incredible how quickly times go by. Thanks for dropping by and leaving your comment.
World in conflict.. Its one of the best modern rts games i have ever played. And the story too. Everything about that game was soooo sooo goood. Wish there was a sequel to it :(. But after the last mission the description said you might be called back to europe again so i am guessing there was supposed to be a sequel. Sadly the game got forgotten... The devs don't post any news, its not on steam, can only buy it from GoG. Man i wish there was any way we could bring this to the devs attention to make a sequel. Hope massive development does something about this.
I re- bought it from GoG as well since it wasn't available on Steam anymore. Thanks for commenting.
@@wargamerarmaverse6272 You really should try for one of your vids Axis and allies, if you don't have the board you can download it online on Triple A. For free!!! check it out
Reason is Sierra closed
I kinda expected to see wargame red dragon. Highly recommend it look it up you wont regret but its overvelming at first sight
@ fnap10 FNAP10 Hi, Yeah unfortunately I completely forgot to include that game in my list. My bad, it should have been there but I forgot to include it. Cheers
@@wargamerarmaverse6272 maybe u should re edit the description.. and add the disclaimer..
@@ZidentZ I edited the description thanks for the advice. All the best
Totally agree. Red Dragon is #1 !
I just played world in conflict again yesterday, such a good game. I got a free copy via uPlay when the made multiplayer open source, but sadly nobody's on multiplayer
Very good. I was thinking to play it myself once again as well. Unfortunately since Game Spy has shut down most multiplayer is not existing anymore. Notwithstanding it's an older game I think it is worthwhile and has re-play ability. They don't make games like that anymore. Everything is focused on loot-boxes and maximize profits, the game is secondary in today's gaming industry. Games have been "dumbed down" so much it's really not funny anymore. For e.g most FPS games have x-ray vision implemented what is the purpose of that is beyond my understanding. Just to give an example. Anyways thanks for commenting and my best wishes to you.
you know you still can play online by downloading a patch from www.massgate.org if you want to just follow the tutorial
note: also join the discord so you know when people online for a match
Sudden strike 2 was the shit back then, and I still play it till this day! Personally, it’s the best RTS for me
Sorry for my late reply but I needed to fix my cooling system in order to avoid destroying my CPU due to overheating. I was actually a lit bit more into the Blitzkrieg franchise which is similar. My favorite remains still Operation Star Mius Front. Most people are shying away due to a steep learning curve. Thanks for dropping by and leaving your comment which is very much apprecaited.
They need to make a game like Full Spectrum Warrior, that was fire! imagine where you call the shots and if you make a mistake, you feel the weight of that mistake.
@Ric I highly doubt that we will see something like Full Spectrum Warrior in the near future. Unfortunately there are only two games FSW and Ten Hammer. I did a play-through of the first one on Authentic difficulty. Personally that was challenging to say the least. It is true that every mistake you make in FSW you gonna pay dearly. Good game, although I have a love and hate relationship with that game. Thanks for leaving your comment very much appreciated. All the best.😁
Wargame Red Dragon should have been #1. I cam from Ancient war games like Rome Total war, but Red Dragon made me fall in love with Modern war RTS games.
Yeah, unfortunately I forgot to include the wargame series . . . bad oversight from my side. Thanks for commenting. all the best.
"America is underattack"
Russians : we are here to greet you blyat!
I am am in need of help. I am new to pc gaming. Would some body please tell me how crusader kings, medevial empire, and total war are different? If I like tactics, which one is better?
Sorry for my late reply. Of all 3 games listed I would opt for the Total War series. Beyond your tactics during the battles there is the management of your empire to be considered which I thoroughly enjoy. Take a look at some you tube videos there's plenty of stuff to be found. Watch some and then opt for the game you like best. My best wishes to you. 😀
Sudden Strike is amazing! Sudden strike 2 is my favourite things in the series.
Mine too. Sudden strike 3+4 are visually looking better but I prefer the game play of Sudden Strike 1+2 over the newer ones. Thanks for commenting. All the best.
@@wargamerarmaverse6272 Hello you forgot to include Age of Empire
👍👍👍 YES. SUDDEN STRIKE 2 is THE BEST OF ALL SERIES.
@@wargamerarmaverse6272 SUDDEN STRIKE FOR is TOO SLOW.
NEED TO MAKE THE INFANTRY UNIT 2D SPRITE TO MAKE IT FASTER THEN ALL VEHICLES GO TO 3D.
COMMANDOS DONT PURSUE THEIR WORK. IF THEY CREATE RTS LIKE THIS THEY WON IN ANY LEVEL.
COMMANDOS ARE SO FAR FASTER AND MORE DETAIL BUT TOO BAD THEY HAVE NO RTS. ☹☹☹
SS2 NEED A COMEBACK WITH MINIMUM ASSORTED 100,000 2D SPRITE INFANTRY UNIT PER WAVE.
PLUS COMBINED 3D VECHLE OF ALL SORT FROM LAND SEA & AIR.
SEE HOW GOOD THE DETAIL WILL BE IF SEEN FROM AERIAL OR BIRDS VIEW.
AND DONT FORGET THE PHYSICS APPLIED TO THE GENRE. :3
World in conflict gives me nostalgia
I love World of conflict still today. These were times were making games was a priority for the devs. Nowadays the priority is to extract as much money form gamers as possible. Sad but true. Thanks for commenting. My best wishes to you.
@@wargamerarmaverse6272 :D
same here man, i just finished again the campaign a while ago and can't move on to those characters who died and also the last campaign scene gives me chills
That was awesome. Really well done. Found some new games to try too. Thanks man 😎👊
Hello mike. Thanks for your comment glad you liked it and moreover that you found some new games to try out. There are quite a lot of less know RTS games around. I guess I should do another RTS video with these games. There are quite a few around.
All the best.
@@wargamerarmaverse6272 Absolutely. Like battlefronts combat mission series. I'm playing combat mission shock force 2 right now. They do a lot of WWII stuff but this one's modern warfare although I'm finding it a bit easy even on elite difficulty. I need more challenge! 😉
@@D-Day-fb3pw Try Cuban Missile Crisis or Syrian warfare in case you haven't played these. They are quite challenging. Cheers.
@@wargamerarmaverse6272 Syrian warfare made me lose 80% of my guys
@@herbet3011 Yeah that game is very challenging. The enemy AI is kicking butts all over the place. LOL. Did you like the game?
Thanks for the video. Most of these games are tank-focussed cheesy arcade style games. The two that have caught my interest are #9 Theatre of War and #1 Graviteam Tactics so I will research those further. I'm an avid Combat Mission player, so it will be difficult to replace that one!
Hi Mark C. I agree most of them are arcade style games. If you look more into "realistic" Strategy games than Graviteam Tactics is the way to go. Theatre of war was kind of a predecessor of Graviteam Tactics. Game mechanics are very similar. Graviteam has brought the game to a whole new level. The game has a steep learning curve you can't just jump right in and start to play. But the reward comes once you understand the game mechanics. I love the Graviteam series. I never tried the new Combat mission I'm still stuck with the old ones depicting WW2. I saw some video's though it looks interesting. Thanks for leaving your comment. All the best.
@@wargamerarmaverse6272 Thanks for the reply. I only play the WW2 CM games and have been for 20 years. Classic although they too have their problems. I just noticed that the Graviteam tactics games are PC only, so I'm out.
@@markc8401 Yeah I see. I forgot to mention they are PC only. Sorry mate you are missing out on a great game. But I understand. I'm playing only on PC I don't have a console so I guess I'm missing out on some great games as well. Coming back to Graviteam Tactics it's most probably too complex to be ported on console. In any case watch some videos on youtube in case you are interested. Cheers
@@markc8401 Dude!!! Combat Mission is the best
@@markc8401 how and why would you play mil rts games on console are you trolling
Great collection and I appreciate your effort to reply to everyone, that's rare.

I was expecting command and conquer series to Appear in this video lmfao
I opted for a ten video list and I left out some pretty big titles C&C was one of them unfortunately I had to make a choice.
@ Preston Dickson There are only 2 games listed which are not WW2. Which games would you have chosen? Thanks for commenting.
wow your video reminded me of all the great rts games i played back when my pc was a desktop.. there is one i cant think of the name of that was similar to world of conflict.. it was in cold war europe nato vs warsaw pact.. there was a ssecond game that i think was called red dragon us vs china.. dam wish i could think of the name of that first game i think europe was in the name .. any one remember that one ?
Hi J Dibagg. The games you are talking about are Wargame Airland Battle, Wargame European Escalation and Wargame Red Dragon. Very good games. Thanks for commenting. Cheers.
@@wargamerarmaverse6272 dam your good.. i remember how i loved the game but couldnt remember the name..dont get old like me..
@@jdibagg7543 I'm afraid that there's no way around getting old. BTW if you have a steam account they are in offer. The whole Bundle all 3 games + some DLC's cost's only € 5.58 .

Company of heroes , men of war , sudden strike series are all great
I agree with you. these games are great indeed. Thanks for commenting. All the best.
Really appreciate your video 🙏
Thank you 🥰
Thank you for leaving your comment. All the best.
no comments on coh, it is the legendary although it is old one
I included only 1 title per franchise and since I played all older COH I mentioned the older version. Thanks for commenting.
Great top 10! Have you ever tried Heart of Iron 4 ? Or Army Men : RTS ? Or C&C generals ? Because these ones are my favorites 👍
I know Heart of Iron 4 and C&C generals. The former one is a very complex game . . . steep learning curve. Thanks for your comment. All the best.
Wow the first game I saw I have to buy a computer fast or else I will regret it lol
Yeah There are quite a lot of games which have never been published for consoles and vice versa. I have only a PC therefore certain games I will never play but there are so many games out there that it isn't a problem to me. Thanks for commenting.
Now add Gates of Hell to the list.
That game should be definitely on that list. When I released the video GOH was still in development. Thanks for leaving your comment. All the best.
Awesome, but where is the Wargame: Red Dragon?
You are right I forgot somehow to include it in the list. I can't give you a valid explanation why I forgot it. It just slipped my mind it should have been definitely on the list. Thanks for pointing that out.
They edited trailers together. I wouldn’t call it high level content. In fact, it’s downright lazy.
@@CurtJunya Yeah I edited 10 trailers of my favorite Military RTS to list them. Maybe I interpret your comment wrong but can you tell me what I should have made different? Instead of the trailers I could've used in game footage. I never comment on my videos. Is that what you perceive as lazy? Thanks for your reply in any case.
Game play footage. If u don’t want to verbalize, maybe a short text scroll explaining WHY it’s you’re favorite. Chopping up trailers made by a marketing team is not difficult. You’ll get “a type” to watch this channel, but some ppl see right through it.
@@CurtJunya Thanks for your suggestions and critique. I will bear that in mind in case I make future videos concerning my favorite video games. Thank you.
Does world in conflict still available? And.. why you didn't and any *Wargame* franchise?
I forgot to add the wargame franchise. See me replies below. World in conflict is still available here www.gog.com/game/world_in_conflict_complete_edition. Cheers
@@wargamerarmaverse6272 im in asia (don't hate me) does multiplayer still working in Asia region?
Actually gotta buy Call to Arms.. thank you for showing me, i was actually find any good military RTS game
First Strike Final Hour, Rusted warfare, Wargamw these r my fav RTS games
FYI : ICBM also a RTS game based on nuclear war Battle
@@ZidentZ hello " im in asia (don't hate me) does multiplayer still working in Asia region? " I'm not hating you my friend. I'm from Europe and I'm honestly not able to give you an answer regarding World of conflict and it's multiplayer servers in Asia. This game was released in 2007 and after the game-spy shutdown most servers went offline and the multiplayer died. Unfortunately I can't tell you if there are active World in conflict servers in Asia. You would need to do an Internet search.. Have a look at this website it might help. www.massgate.org/. Anyways, I'm not into multiplayer lately too many hackers and people who cheat but rest assured the single player is still worth it.
Graviteam Tactics are good but the interface are so damn complicated for that it should be nr 3 COH 1 nr 1and MOWAS 2 nr 2
Hello Elmer The list is a personal preference of mine. I always loved and still love complex games with a steep learning curve. I understand that a lot of people shy away from Graviteam Tactics because it takes some time to learn all the complexity of commands you can issue in this game. By no means is it perfect but the sheer possibilities this game gives you, you have to pay the price to learn to play the game before jumping in and playing. It's no instant gratification. It takes quite some time to get familiar with it. I assure you once you mastered the complexity of the command system it is one of the most gratifying games experiences I had. Thanks for commenting and letting me know your top 3 RTS games. All the best
Hi, nice list ! Very nice to see someone who is eally looking for the historical stuff.
Do you know any game which has a very good historical content concerning armies ? Like SD2 for instance. You really play the historical divisions and I really like it. In most historical games, you play "historical units" but not really the battlegroups as they were. Do you know what I mean ? In SD2, you stick to the historical battlegroups during campaigns, but in multiplayer as well, that's not the best for game balance, but I do really love. Can we find any of this in any other game ?
Graviteam Tactics is pretty much faithful in his historical settings and battle groups - units in general. It has a great replay-ability value because the outcome of the missions depends on the tactics you use. It's the number one on the list. The only thing is that Graviteam tactics has a steep learning curve but it is amazingly growing on you the more you learn all the possibilities you really have at your disposal. It's more kind of a simulation. The only thing is that before jumping in you have to learn the game mechanics and controls. Graviteam is most probably the closest to SD2 in terms of historical accuracy.😁
All of them so good game probably ı sea best list ever in my life for rts
I'm glad you liked it and thanks for commenting. All the best.
How about C&C Generals ZH :)
Call to arms is amazing
Couldn't agree more with you. It is an amazing game IMHO. Thanks for leaving your comment. My best wishes to you.
I hingly recommend call to arms because its FPS and RTS
Yeah it's a great game and it's on the list. Thanks for commenting. Cheers
Hola Wargamer sabes si este juego ''Call to Arms'' (2018) esta en formato fisico o solo es digital
Yo tengo en formato Fisico:
2.) Company of Heroes (2006)
3.) Men of War: Assault Squad 2 (2014)
5.) World in conflict (2006)
7.) Blitzkrieg (2003)
8.) Sudden Strike (2000)
10.) Order of war (2009)
Hola Arthax40
No sé si existe una versión comercial de este juego para ser honesto. Compré la versión digital en Steam. Hacer una búsqueda rápida en Internet no reveló nada. Si tienes una cuenta de Steam, puedes preguntar en el foro del juego.
Lamentablemente, no sé si existe una copia física de este juego. Lo siento, pero no puedo responder a su pregunta.
Qué tengas un lindo día
i love how the first one is a turn based game lol
Yeah sorry for that my mistake.🤣
deos anyone know game like sudden strike but bigger? i'm looking for this kind of game, also if anyone know any rts with giant scale...please tell me ( i heard about songs of syx, also im gonna to check steel division from this movie, but also looking for more options), also if there is something like total war but with controlling every soldier separately ...i think you know what i am looking for ;)
@ Lucibal search on CZcams Graviteam Tactics Miusfront watch some videos. It has a steep learning curve and it takes some time to master the game. But once you get the hang on it, it's going to be one of the most satisfying game experience in an RTS you will ever have. It is my favorite game when it comes to RTS. Most people get scared away because you need to learn how to play. It's challenging. You can't just jump into it and play. The scale is huge IMHO. Maybe take a look at Theater of war as well which was the predecessor of Graviteam Tactics, the game mechanics are similar. The difference is that Graviteam tactics brought the RTS gaming to a whole new level. If you like a challenging game play that's the way to go.
All the best.
Company of heroes 2
im surprised Act of War isn't in this either
I had to choose ten of the games. I left out some pretty big tiles mostly an oversight. I guess I should have opted for a top twenty list to fit them all.
Was that an advert?
@kingofenglandthethir No it's not an advert. It's a list of my favorite RTS games and I used the official trailers to showcase the list. I'm a sucker for good cinematics and machinima. I hope that explains it. all the best.😁
IS THERE A 2D SPRITE FOR INFANTRY UNIT AND 3D FOR ANY VEHICLES RTS GAME.??? 🙄
Hi melon shop, can you give me an exmple of another game with 2D sprite for infantry units and 3D for vehicles. Not being a native english tongue I'm not sure if I understand correctly. Are there any other games like you described and if so, can you name one in order for me to understand and maybe come up with something you are looking for.
Cheers
@@wargamerarmaverse6272 NON HAS BEEN CREATED FROM ANY DEVELOPER AND STUDIOS SO FAR. THE IDEA is USING DETAIL 2D SPRITE FOR INFANTRY SO IT COME OUT FROM TRENCHES BUNKER HOUSES BUILDING TUNNELS VEHICLES PARATROOPS ETC... AS MASSIVE FORCE OF UNIT RESPONDING & ATTACKING AT THE SAME TIME WHEN ALERTED. PLUS THE PHYSICS WHEN BLOWN UP & THE DEAD BODIES WILL NOT BE REMOVE FROM ANY MAP. ITS A TRICK OF 3D CAM FROM ANY VIEW ANGLE TO ACHIEVE THIS. IMAGENE COMMANDOS USING 2D THEN 3D. THAT WILL BE POSSIBLE BUT THE COMMANDOS DEVELOPER DIDNT CREATE MORE MASSIVE RTS GAMES. THEY JUST STOP. 🤔🤔🤔

You need to try R.U.S.E it s way better than all of the games here together
@GhostLP I sincerely apologize for my late reply but I had some urgent real life issues to attend to. I know Ruse and it's a great game. As for better than all the games listed is a personal preference I think. Don't get me wrong R:U.S.E. is a great game. I should have done a top twenty list because 10 are not enough. Thanks for leaving your comment. My best wishes to you.😁
don't understand why creators do not show their sub count, embarrassed or what?
hi MatrixNative I don't perceive myself as a content creator and why does it bother you when no sub-counts are being shown? My channel is very small, the reason why I deactivated the sub-count was due to the "wanna be friends" period. Small channels got targeted by these people mine included. Deactivating my sub-count stopped this nonsense. I left it deactivated. Why would I be embarrassed by a low sub-count? Should I be embarrassed by a low sub-count? This is just a hobby of mine I started last year due to the lock down and that's it. I hope i could sufficiently answer your question in regards. Thanks for having left your comment. My best wishes to you.
Sad that Warhammer 40k Dawn of War is not here
Yeah you are right, Dawn of war should have been on the list and I forgot Wargame as well. Next time i need to do a favorite 20 RTS games. Thanks for pointing it out though and thanks for leaving your comment.
My best wishes to you.
Call to Arms is almost perfect for a modern war rts in CoH style but they had to make the game in fps, it sucks
Isn't the FPS a choice you can make? You can play CTA as an RTS without using the first person view correct me if I'm wrong. Thanks for commenting.
Is there any free ones ?
Use steamunlocked.net sometimes they post games with multiplayer
Everything is free with little crime called Pirating

My favourite is RUSE
Yeah I remember Ruse. It's a good game. There are simply to many RTS games to get them all in a top ten list. LOL I even forgot to include wargame. Thanks for commenting. Cheers

I personally doubt that it's going to be released still this year given the circumstances of the virus lot's of developers are having troubles to maintain set deadlines. I have Call to Arms and will definitely pay attention to this future release and take a look at it. IMHO Call to Arms is a pretty good game with the unique feature to be able to play the game as an RTS or FPS. This is the most intriguing part of Call to Arms
@@wargamerarmaverse6272 i agree with that, but i am kinda dissapointed because i have to pay 25€ to play the game with Russians or other nation, which is very greedy and the game was released so called „bare bones“ because it has no voice acting, no singleplayer for other nations. But i like that i can play it as an RTS or a FPS game too. Just im
@@xx_emilis_xx6638 I hear ya. Unfortunately the gaming industry has taken a bad turn down the road. Suits are running most triple AAA games developing studios. They are profiteering from gamers addiction and trying to squeeze even more profits by selling games with half of the assets. Micro transactions, Live services have becoming the norm. They are already earning millions during the sales of a first release but they are making even more money Billions with micro transactions loot boxes and live services after releasing their games. Developers at times are pressured to release games which are not ready for release to keep their shareholders happy. Case in point Cyberpunk 2077 CDPR.
The game was not ready but has been released nonetheless. Sad state of affairs. They are doing it because gaming can be an addiction like drugs or alcohol and they are using the addiction to squeeze as much profit as possible out of gamers. All the best.
