7/9/2023 0 Comments Supreme commander 2 reviewsSo, while I am not the most avid RTS player, the campaign should be pretty easy for an average gamer. It worked wondrously in all but 2, both the last mission and the one before that I focused on my defense while I built my army, until my base was overrun, so in a desperate attempt I swarmed the opposing base with everything I had, found the commander and destroyed them before mine bit the proverbial dust. ![]() Yes, I honestly used those 2 very unimaginative (and slightly pathetic) strategies throughout the 18 mission campaign mode. If that seems too easy to you, you can just max out the 250 unit limit with basic units and send the swarm into the enemy's base and laugh as your army of ants topples a kingdom. Though, these advantages can be negated relatively quickly against the normal AI as you can outtech them easily, and throw down some of the games experimentals and crush your opposition like a tomato can. The three factions are pretty well balanced, with UEF being a little more armored, the Cybran being less armored but more powerful, and the Illuminate right in the middle. But for those who are still stumped, here's a hint: It rhymes with key. From that brief back story, it's easy to tell how many campaigns there are. You'll know who you're fighting, but for what reasons are usually left out, or so confusing it doesn't even make sense. Regardless, the plot takes a backseat to the strategy that is employed throughout the campaign. The three forces of the Coalition The United Earth Federation, the Illuminate, and the Cybran Nation, all blame each other and prepare for war. The story takes place 25 years after the end of the Infinite War, with the galaxy reeling from the recent assassination of the newly elected president of the Colonial Defense Coalition. But it works in Supreme Commander 2, so you can worry about setting up an excellent flanking attack on the enemy's base instead of working on your uber micro. A typical thing to do is select a large section of mixed units from your forces, and move them elsewhere and not worry about it, in other RTS games that's the equivalent of donating all your units to their respective Gods. Supreme Commander 2 takes a more standard approach, with less micromanaging than most other RTS'. The Daily Star splashes on Seamus the Irish wolfhound who will star in the Mall parade tomorrow at the King's coronation.While the original Supreme Commander took a bold new direction with various changes to the RTS rulebook. The King is in a "battle" to secure the monarchy's future, the i paper says, and also notes the disastrous day for the Tories. The Guardian has splashed on a "crushing result for Tories" in the local elections, with a picture of Sir Keir Starmer holding a baby - a classic of the election genre. The Sun splashes on an exclusive report that Prince Harry will be seated three rows back at the coronation ceremony in the same line as his cousins Princesses Beatrice and Eugenie. The Daily Express also splashes entirely on the King's coronation. The Daily Telegraph relegates the disastrous Tory election results to a NIB at the bottom of the front page. ![]() King Charles III will fulfil his destiny when he becomes the 40th reigning monarch to be crowned at Westminster Abbey, The Times writes. The Financial Times is one of the few papers whose splash reflects the "crushing" losses suffered by the Conservative Party in the local elections. The Daily Mail leads with an image of the King at his investiture as the Prince of Wales aged 20 in 1969. He will not only wear the crown he will bear the weight of history and the hopes of the nation, that's the Daily Mirror's take on the King's coronation tomorrow. ![]() The coronation was scheduled for just two days after the local elections, meaning that King Charles III bumps a disastrous day for the Tories off (most of) the front pages. It's been a huge day in politics, and you'd think that that would dominate the front pages, but it does not. We'll be back on Sunday morning to assess the results in full, and get all the reaction ahead of MPs returning to Westminster next week in the wake of these results. Thanks so much for staying with us for the local elections. With just two councils left to declare, here's where things stand at 11pm: Meanwhile, Labour and the Lib Dems both made huge gains across the country, while the Green Party also surged with some big wins, and majority control of one council. The Tories suffered results worse than their worst case scenario, losing control of councils across the country and losing more than 1,000 seats. It's been a huge day in politics today, with voters across much of England having their say at the ballot box after the chaos in national government in 2022.
