One of the first PC games I have ever played when I was little, almost two decades ago, the story in this game is always special, and even after so many years there are no contenders for this kind of RTS. You have to build an army while being mindful of your economy, you can make your units patrol areas in whatever way you seem fit (press left shift), the game doesn't babysit you too much, although you can of course select the campaign difficulty, for me being "hard" the most enjoyable one". The story allows you to witness the conflict and the various battles between these three factions from the perspective of each of them, with 3 unique endings depending on the faction that you choose. One day you start assaulting cybran planets as an AEON, the next day when you decide to play Cybran you find yourself on the other tip of the scale and you need to protect a Cybran world from an AEON attack, and so on. Gameplay wise, as I already said, you have absolute control over how to move your units, where to move them, and so on (with few exceptions, you won't be able to send a land tank into the sea, obviously) however there are units that can hover over the water or land units that can go under the water, while there are also naval units other than air. As the story goes advances your commander will be allowed to use a more and more extensive arsenal, you will be allowed to build stronger, more advanced units. You start on a mission in which you are allowed to use only Tier 1 buildings and units, which is made out of the simplest units, and finish on the last mission being allowed to use nukes, long range artillery with which you can hit enemy bases from the other side of the map, you can build flying doughnuts (aeon), fat land tortoises which are basically a mobile artillery, and so on. And if you find the story captivating enough, it keeps getting better in Supreme Commander: Forged Alliance, which starts storywise soon after the events of Supreme Commander 1, a story worth pursuing.

Old time gamer here. RTS fan. Played all C&C's... How did I miss this Masterpiece???? I bough whole SC collection and I highly recommend giving it a chance if like me for some reason you've missed out on this game.

This is the epitome of what an RTS game should aspire to be: the ultimate RTS experience. It is one of the pinnacles of the RTS genre during its 'silver age' (2001–2010). The greatest of these was Supreme Commander. Despite its heavy system requirements for the time, it boasted a unique gameplay system and the ability to use multiple monitors, a feature that remains unmatched even today. Its expansion, Forged Alliance, builds on these unique mechanics. However, the sequels do not live up to the original.

Best massive RTS, unfortunately, often crashes in Windows 11. Tips to reduce crash : + Run Compatibility mode to Windows XP + Play offline + Do not turn on any overlay when changing Video Resolution settings
