Cool Kickstarter RTS

If you are into epic RTS games, check out this RTS from team members who worked on Supreme Commander, one of my favorite RTS games.

Tech is a big part of RTS games because they push machines so hard. 3D graphics, 100s of units on the screen at one time and loads of effects, (not to mention AI and multiplayer over the Internet) love it. Check it out. If you haven't played Supreme Commander, it is a must play for RTS players.

Is it being done in Torque? The visual style reminds me of that new Tower Wars game done in Torque

No, it is an in-house engine from the developer of previous RTS engines for Supreme Commander and Total Annihilation.

Crap. I forgot to back it when I got paid. Hrm, hope they make the soundtrack available through another purchase later.
