What it is
Supreme Commander 2 is a real-time strategy game from Wargaming Seattle, released in 2010 for Windows and macOS. Players command large armies of customizable land, air and naval units, with three factions: the United Earth Federation, the Cybran Nation and the Illuminate. The single-player campaign follows three character-centered storylines set 25 years after Supreme Commander: Forged Alliance. Players can research technologies and units and deploy them during battle, developing basic tanks into more capable machines. Experimental units also return with new designs and abilities unlocked through research. The game can be played online as well as in single-player, though the listed Steam features specify multiplayer without describing its modes. Steam also lists achievements, stats, leaderboards, Steam Cloud and Family Sharing. Its focus is large-scale army creation, faction choice and battlefield research, with a campaign that adds personal stories to the conflict.
