    Do you want epic battles?

    Do you want breathtakingly gigantic scenes of glorious destruction and heart-pounding action?

    The graphics on this game are amazing, especially given the infinite scalability.

    Giant battles? Why, Yes! Why fight a war with subtlety when you can send.

    This is a real-time RTS, on steroids.

    All the normal limiting factors on RTS games, like un-replenishable resources, unit limits, size and range limits have all been stripped away, leaving only a gigantic, huge war game, whose scale is limited only by your imagination.
