New Strategy:

    Day and night missions: Complete your missions before the sun goes down because the rules change at night. Full 3D terrain: Maps become living worlds. Use terrain to your advantage. Hide troops under trees in the swamp, or position your artillery on high ground to control the passes to your base.

Incredible Graphics:

Thanks to Intel's Multi-Resolution Mesh technology, this detail comes to you at no loss of game speed. Phenomenal Effects: Explosions, lighting, and animations all take advantage of 3D acceleration.

RTS Enhancements:

     Squad Management: Group your troops into squads to take advantage of new squad-level commands such as formations and tactical orders. New Resource Management System: Call in reinforcements using a unique and intuitive shuttle re-supply system.

Multiplayer Gameplay:

    Cooperative Missions: Assign vital roles to your team members: resuply, base-building, or combat responsibility.

Gameplay Modifications:Choose from different multiplayer game options, including 'King of the Hill', 'Capture the Flag', or play traditional free-for-all battles with up to eight opponents.
