Real-Time Grand Strategy
Posted: Fri May 15, 2026 3:24 pm
I'm curious if there's been any discussion of a realtime Global Grand Strategy game from Matrix or Slitherine. P*dox released 'Darkest Hour' 15 years ago, and there's been no game in it's class since, really. Their product line took a turn away from serious wargamers and grognards and I don't think it's coming back.
And there is a large group of gamers still playing this ancient title multiplayer in spite of little or no MP support. It would be WONDERFUL to see a large MP(6+) player Grand strategy game, perhaps along the lines of toaw 4 with some production and tech. AI opponents are everywhere, available for any game. But against all odds, some people actually prefer playing against other people.
Matrix/Slitherine seem to be dedicated to wargamers/grognards. I'm convinced that, if such a game was to be designed and released, it would be from you guys. Thanks.
