Summary

The true RTS addiction begins...

The Good

Nice interface, smooth gameplay, excellent multiplayer options, nice background music

The Bad

Outdone by later RTS releases (1997>). Game became stagnant once you had completed one storyline (VERY similar storyline between Orc campaign and Human campaign). Very similar race strengths.

The Bottom Line

Similar in gameplay to Command & Conquer, Starcraft, Age of Empires...

New in Warcraft 2: Naval Units Mission Objectives screen (Orc) After you've completed both the human & orc campaign you can always set up a custom scenario if you want to play some more Animated introduction (continued) Intro sequence Orcs have dragons, the humans have Gryphon Riders for aerial attacks Post battle summary with several statistics Mages have several spells, the toughest part for the player is to use these spells in the middle of a hectic battle
