Dark Reign 2

Strategy and Wargaming Game from Activision, Inc., by Auran

Real-time strategy game. Sequel to the well-received Dark Reign. The game takes place on fully 3D battlefields and employs a new engine. Its premise is a conflict between two groups, the Jovian Defence Authority and the Sprawlers. The JDA enjoy advanced technology, whilst the more primitive Sprawler people have much greater numbers of men.

Control over units is exercised by the drag-and-click method. There is also a squad manager for higher-level organization of your forces.

In-game a full range of viewpoints is available. Since the terrain is variable, by using the zoom function it is possible to refine your strategy, using landscape features to your advantage. The game's graphics, AI and audio are good.
