There are many types of grand-strategy games out there: Command and Conquer, Total War, Age of Empires, Company of Heroes, and Iron Harvest, to name a few. While they are good video games in their own way, they all have the same concept. Most strategy games have a small to medium-sized map, a base of operations where you can construct buildings within a limited area, and a few basic units. However, out of all the grand-strategy games out there, one game sticks out from the norm: Supreme Commander. Developed by the now defunct Gas Powered Games, later renamed Wargaming Seattle, Supreme Commander offers something more grandeur than its competitors of other genres. It has very large maps, so many unit types, unlimited building range, Armored Command Units, or ACUs, that can move around and build stuff along with small engineers, three unit tiers, and three factions, four if you get the expansion. With such a huge diversity at a grand scale, it is no wonder why players today still play it competitively.
