Order of War

Order of War is a real-time strategy game that pushes large battlefield units around rather than letting you drown in city building or elaborate economy systems. By our assessment, its best idea is the scale of the fights: it aims for front-line maneuvering and the feeling of commanding formations under pressure. The downside is that this narrower focus can leave it feeling slimmer than the big genre staples, especially if you want long-term empire management or lots of unit variety. In play it tends to be about positioning, timing, and watching a line break or hold, which gives it a more military flavor than a city-focused strategy. Against broader RTS games, it is more direct and more battlefield-centred, but also less expansive. Order of War is for players who want immediate tactical control and clear fronts, and not for people chasing a deep build-up layer or a sprawling campaign map.
