GameSpot: Ashes of the Singularity: An RTS With Astounding Scale

Published on January 28, 2016 By Island Dog In Ashes of the Singularity

GameSpot got a demo recently of Ashes of the Singularity, and they had some great things to say about it.

"In Ashes of the Singularity, the real-time strategy title from Stardock Entertainment, overarching plans are key. Unlike some RTS games that stress minute-to-minute choices and reactionary commands, Ashes asks you to manage several armies at once across massive, procedural maps. In short, Ashes isn't about when. It's about where.

The armies you command are just as colossal as the maps. In a recent demo, Stardock founder Brad Wardell jumped into a saved game in which his forces consisted of 1,440 individual units. By the end of his first game--which ended in failure, as he divided his attention between Ashes and speaking to me--he had about 700. That's higher than the maximum population limit of many other strategy games."
