AWAITING YOUR HORDERS

RTS on a huge scale

AWAITING YOUR HORDERS is a PC base-building RTS where you build up enormous armies and send them into battle. A single order can produce 10,000 to 100,000 soldiers, with up to 1,000,000 on screen. Soldiers climb over one another in piles and towers rather than walking. Fire burns the exposed surface of a stack, while a shell can knock it down and send soldiers flying before they get back up.

Armies and formations

Build a construction yard, power plants, crystal extractors and barracks, then add defenses such as machine-gun nests, cannons, twin turrets and sandbag walls. Production starts in batches of 10,000; batches of 25,000, 50,000 and 100,000 unlock as your horde grows. Six horde types include infantry, heavy infantry, scouts on stilts, tanks in nine models, walkers and engineers.
