Wargame: Red Dragon

Still the king of this genre of mil sim RTS. i am still able to play a few 10vs10 multiplayer matches each night as well. Population is low though which is unfortunate. The newer sims just don't do it as well.

It's a pity Eugen Systems stopped their Wargame franchise because the games were a highpoint for RTS gaming. As it stands it's still remembered with much fondness in 2026 and while there was nothing wrong with the company's previous Airland Battle and was a good game at the time Red Dragon knocks ALB and any other RTS game set in the present day out of the park So what makes this game outstanding ? 1) Maps. The ones in ALB were limited and rather similar but not so with Red Dragon. There's something like 50 maps with this game some of which resemble archipelagos , some resmble jungles , some resemble temperate regions and some resemble deserts. There's also a large difference in sizes of the maps too 2) More units. I did think there might have been too many units in ALB so increasing the number of units in this game might seem on the surface a disadvantage but it's not because there's more of a contrast in the units here 3) Some of the factions are overpowered. With ALB the factions seem more evenly matched where as here you're able to inflict maximum carnage on opposition forces which I guess might emulate reality. Does anyone really think North Korea could win a war with their T-34s and T55s against a Western coalition armed with Abram tanks and Apache helicopters ? It's not flawless of course and as nearly everyone has mentioned the naval element is a waste of time. I don't know if it's just me but the air element is something I have little success with , which is something I had little success with in ALB so it's probably just me. Despite praising the game for having overpowered factions there's little logic involving what ones are overpowered or underpowered ? Despite being Western democracies the Anzacs and Canadians are very underpowered compared to some other factions But if you just want to play a land war involving cold war armies in different terrains there's no other game on the market that comes close to this one. Don't even bother waiting for a sale because even at full price it's worth every penny

why can't regular soldiers capture points, just ruins the game for me

Tank and Plane

Eugen needs to revamp the game to update the decks or let the programmers cook, DLC is needed

游戏很好，游戏里的新手教程略等于没有，玩之前建议上网看教程不然就等着被傻逼ai冲爆，原版战役没打过前哨站模式的或玩不熟悉建议别碰，尤其二次朝战，能体验被太阳痛击

Artillery adds dignity to what would otherwise be an ugly brawl

At what point do I get good?

I love bombing villages with MLRS as the Yugoslavian army. 10/10, reminds me of the 90's

No female soldiers, which makes it a rarity and lets you keep immersion and works on macOS. Thank you boys!
