For me it is mud and blood 2

Didn't play the game, just saw trailer for it and it became a core memory
Lost C&C game i like to call it.

Somewhere between 2007 and 2009, around the time when Resident Evil 5 was teasered and released, i saw a trailer for an RTS game that resembled Generals. It was shown on one of those TV channels dedicated to computer games and tech.

The trailer included both live-action and gameplay cuts. In the live-action segment, two old generals were shouting at each other through a video link while sitting in grey rooms that resembled bunkers or command centers. The generals looked like Granger and Townes, and i specifically remember one of them saying to the other, "Я тeбя yничтoжy! (I will destroy you!)". In the gameplay cuts, a female assistant, just like in Generals said, "Дoбpo пoжaлoвaть нa нoвyю бaзy, Гeнepaл (Welcome to the new base, General)". Not "commander," as is typically used in RTS games, especially in other C&C games, but specifically "General." One of the gameplay clips featured flamethrower infantry in red faction color pushing into enemy forces in a snowy environment. The health of the units was displayed not as a bar above them, but as a circle underneath, which changed color as the unit's health decreased.

That's it, this is all i can remember but its a core memory

for sure not the only one to know about that game, i used to be obcessed with it when i was a kid, because for me it was the coolest thing ever.
Too bad my retarded kid brain kept forgeting the name of the game, but to be fair I probably played a generous thousands of diferent flash games between the ages of 5 and 13.
Pretty sure I found M&B on kongregate or y8, some more dark site like that, for sure not armor games or miniclip.

I idk if they are obscure but here is obscure these are since non of my friends had the saem tism as me but here goes of the top of my head: Battle gear, World domination II, 1066, Hex empire, Autumn war (this one scared me shitless), Relic war, Via Sol, Endless war (but the one that was wave defense one), Spifire 1940, Birds of steam(?), High tea, Warfare 1917/1944

War is unfair.

probably any of the hex based strategy games of the 90s
i got given a copy of this one by my grandmothers gardener
>>
>>2291843
For me it's Mud and Blood Recon.
4 rangers, gooks behind every bladegrass, every step could be a punji trap or a mine.
Airsupport is unavailable for 90% of the time and even if it is your siggy is likely going to fail the call anyway.
This game is such a bullshit
I fucking love it.
Can't wait for the remastered version on LUA engine to come live.

>>2291843
Recon mogs and also urb is a retard who should get euthanized actually.
Recondo never ever and mnb3 is gay aislop

Are you looking for Warfare (2008)? Made by GFI Russia (formerly Mist Land South)
>>
There was a PC game in the 90s that had the same units and gameplay as Advance Wars for GameBoy Advance, but very simple graphics. It came in a box called The Big Three, with the picture of Churchill, FDR and Stalin, had a WWII encycolopedia, this game, and something else, maybe an Axis and Allies clone. I can't remember if it was made in Japan or not but there was no anime stuff. I remember it being so similar that it had to have a connection to Advance Wars but I couldn't find any info.

Nah, the one i saw was clearly a Generals-like and has nothing to do with Cats Who Plat

>>2291843
I spent untold hours playing that on Kongregate back in the day.

Is he really doing slop for 3? That's a shame, I was always fond of the sort of amateur hand-drawn aesthetic.
>>
For me it's No Gretaer Glory: The American civil war.
Never managed to win the game with the Union despite doing everything correct, my theory is that the game modifies the stats to give itself an unfair advantage but I just can't prove it.

>>2292356
Loved 1066, always taunted the enemy into destruction, that game made me into a fast typer.

The graphics are upscaled and he's doing slop for the historical images instead of how it used to be
Also I don't find the gameplay loop on 3 satisfying at all, you're stuck with 6 soldiers from Normandy to Berlin plus timed call ins like tanks and aircraft, but you're fighting all kinds of raped shit.
At least in Recon it made sense because you're a LARRP

Tower defense simulator for 2012 elections. There were multiple faces including Oprah ending on Obama and the game looped to the first enemy after beating his copies.
I played it on kongregate once and never ever found, seen or heard of it again.

Also this game, I would love to play it again so much. It's not uploaded on bluemaxima.

And no I'm not looking for the idle version ARG that ended being cancelled.

The what!?

I remember back in like 09-10 I played this 3d ww1 naval wargame centered on the battle of Jutland, like a lot of these niche titles it had dracoian DRM that required it phone home every week or so or it would revert to the demo version and later on they tried their own steam client knock off.

Anyone know what I'm talking about? I think they made a similar game about the Russo-japanese war.

>>2297992
Was it online ? Is it Navyfield?
>>
>>2298021
No, it was a single player game
>>
Colony, Sea of Fire, and Sea of Fire 2 were so fucking good it was unreal. Shadez Black Ops too but in a different way.

He used pretty bad ai placeholders pictures for the different modes but they will be replaced, everything else is still drawn by urb, steam version is ok but I prefer M&B2

>>2297992
Are they the games by "Storm Eagle Studio". They have two, "Jutland" based on WWI naval combat and Distant Guns based on the Russo-Japanese war.
