What are some strategy games focused on singleplayer or at least ones with good campaign modes?
Both real-time and turn-based are fine.
>>
>>1938988
No campaign but there's a mod for Supreme Commander called The LOUD project that is mostly singleplayer skirmish and possibly co-op vs ai.
>>
>>1938988
Singleplayer isn't just about the campaign. There's also stuff like skirmish, survival, sandbox, runs, challenges, random scenarios, conquest maps, etc.
I'd rather not make a super long list so I'll only mention some less obvious ones: Solar Settlers, Space Rangers 2, Infested Planet, Bad North, Slipways, Achikaps, Phantom Renaissance, Mini Metro.

Galciv 2

Check out Project Celeste revival of Age of Empires Online. It is free and has loads of single player content.
>>
>>1938988
Troubleshooter
Ground Control 1 and 2
Most C&C games
Company of Heroes
X Universe games technically qualify, though they're the sort of games where (You) are a direct participant and it takes a while to open up macro play.
>>
>>1938988
Warzone 2100
>>
>>1938988
Panzer Corps (2 especially) has fun single player campaigns from an Axis perspective. I like them both, would happily recommend.
>>
SC 2 has one of the best campaigns in RTS genre.
>>
>>1938988
Starcraft 2

Got some nice meta progression and customisation between missions.

Also they do the thing where you basically have to build from nothing/almost nothing at the start of every mission, which I prefer. Never liked AoE2 scenarios where they keep starting you off with a large walled base.

Creeper World series.
AI War 1&2.

>Try AI War 1
>re-do the tutorial to remember things
>start campaign
>grab about 6 planets, put the game down
>months pass
>don't remember a thing, have to re-do the tutorial again
>repeat cycle

I think it's the coice paralysis that makes me put the game down. So much shit you can do, every ship has a wall-of-text description and there are several dozen of them, it's too much at once

While I love Eador, the campaign is super grindy and repetitive. Meeting the berserker dude was as far as I got
>>
>>1938988
Age of Empires 2 has good campaigns
>>
>>1938988
Sudden Strike has campaigns for western allies, r*ssians and germans that are hard as balls, plus hundreds of single missions from that mission pack alone. Community maps and numerous mods make that even more.
>>
unfortunately nothing has come close to world in conflict since its release.
>>
>>1938988
X-Com
Majesty: The Fantasy Kingdom Sim

>world in conflict
absolute shame it came out right in the middle of GWOT and the rice of COD4
>>
>>1945577
WiC has an incredibly boring mission design.
The campaign is only enjoyable because it's so over-the-top-Michael-Bay-and-Roland-Emmerich-fuck-a-bald-eagle and you can chuckle at the silliness.
>>
>>1941572
HW3 tainted the series forever.
>>
>>1938988
Rule the Waves doesn't even have a multiplayer mode and probably never will
