One of the truest Good Old Games that should appear in GOG. Scenarios were fun, quick and they required enough strategy to get your brain moving a bit. One of the first rts i have played.
My first RTS, it also came with full polish localization on CD., which was important to me as a child. Dad taught me how to play games with this one. My old CD is kinda broken and the game is not fully compatible with modern OSes, so it could use some saving~!

My first game, seemed hard back then but now can't find it anywhere. My original CD is broken and won't even read on PC after spending roughly 20 years in the closet
