The entire in-game UI can be scaled between one of 3 presets, and in my experience Extra Small is optimal. The user interface is utilitarian in the extreme, which fits given the density of information the game is asking you to parse and process constantly, and keeps things relatively clear (even if I’m always a sucker for a fancy user interface). Even at a distance, however, Red Dragon has a lot to offer visually. But darned if it’s not kind of a waste of those lovingly crafted vehicle and structure models. Much like Supreme Commander, you’ll spend the bulk of your time in Wargame looking at your units as a mass of icons. Most of the time, the game will look more like this: It is unfortunate that in many cases, you’ll be zoomed all the way out to look at the map as a whole, or perhaps zooming in to watch a couple sectors, but it’s seldom that you’ll have the luxury to view things up close like the promo shots. Whether you’re zoomed in on an individual vehicle or structure, or zoomed out to see the entire map at once, Eugen has spared no attention to detail.
WARGAME RED DRAGON CUSTOM MAPS FULL
Read on to get the full scoop on this amazing, frustrating game. Unfortunately, all of this complexity is as much a bane as a boon, resulting in one of the steepest learning curves in the genre. It’s truly a spectacle, with nuanced and fulfilling gameplay worthy of it being considered one of the best games in the genre. Maps span kilometers of space, with multiple towns, farmlands, forests, rivers, oceans and more included. Eugen Systems, the developer, has put some serious chops into the game’s realism, with vehicles themselves having 12 stats, and weapons having up to 9 apiece, as well as individual ammunition levels and type(s) for each weapon a unit or squad might possess. The third entry in Eugen System’s Wargame franchise, this is a game of incredible scale and scope, including hundreds of tanks, aircraft, helicopters, infantry, seafaring vessels and other weapons of war spanning over a decade, from before 1980 (some, like the T-34, hail from World War 2) all the way through to 1990. Wargame: Red Dragon is one of the best games you might never play.
