Halo Wars 2 vs Supreme Commander
Halo Wars 2
Halo Wars 2 is the exciting sequel to Halo Wars (obviously) that's set after the events of Halo 5. Featuring a single player/co-op campaign that sends you on a mission to the legendary Ark, players will need to command their armies in epic large-scale battles against a powerful enemy. The game also has a multiplayer aspect as well, allowing you to test your mettle against other players (1 to 3 players per team).The latest addition in this game though is its Blitz option. It's a game mode that combines the deck-building of collectible cards with real-time strategy. So in other words, you'll be battling other players or waves of enemies with a deck (your army) you built.
Halo Wars 2 is definitely the game to get if you've enjoyed the original game or any classic RTS games like Starcraft. The only bummer is that the game is Xbox-exclusive, so players on the PC or other consoles will not be able to experience this game.
Supreme Commander
Supreme Commander is an excellent spiritual successor to the popular strategic game, Total Annihilation. Set in a futuristic world and a futuristic war between three factions, the game lets you dive into the turning point in the war where only one faction can emerge as the victor. The gameplay emphasizes strongly on strategic planning and thinking ahead as you'll not only need to amass an offensive force to take out your enemies; you'll also need to build up your base's defenses in order to repel invading armies.Aside from its abandoned multiplayer mode, the most unfortunate thing about this game though is that there isn't a speed up option so most of the processes in the game are incredibly slow. Even the movement of your vehicles is slow. So, unless you have hours after hours to spend, Supreme Commander might not appeal to you as much - you might want to try its sequel instead.
