That was more an action game, not really an RPG.

Any good threads on the redesign?  It's hard to find anything.

Key appear to be: https://forum.paradoxplaza.com/forum/threads/upgraded-forum-feedback-thread.1387167

and in OT: https://forum.paradoxplaza.com/forum/threads/this-is-hideous.1387170

Almost a month later, and it dawned on me that I'm not regularly checking the Paradox forums anymore.  Checked back in today, and yep, same unreadable shit.  I wonder how much traffic volume they lost to their forums.

They've now a legacy skin that fixes the most egregious issues with formatting.

This looks like silly fun: https://store.steampowered.com/app/674500/Total_Tank_Simulator/

DEPLOY YOUR FORCES AND GET PERSONAL
Play as a commander deciding your army configuration and tactical deployment on the field on massive battles. But also experience first line action instantly by taking control of individual units on the fly, from tanks or planes to snipers and more.

EVERY BATTLE IS UNIQUE.
From infantry to aircraft, super-secret projects or tanks, LOTS of tanks... there are over 200 different units at your disposal, seriously - check them out!
You won't run out of maps either. With more than 50 unique maps you will never know if your next battle is going to be deep in the Sahara Desert, in the green fields of Europe or in the snowy plains of Russian Taiga.

DESTROY EVERYTHING.
Large maps carefully crafted to fit infantry, motorized and airborne action that include deformable terrain and gradual destruction of buildings and landmarks. Shape your battlefield with never ending artillery fire! Blow up vehicles, bring down buildings, flatten forests... It's total physics-driven destruction.

CAMPAIGN MODE
Change WWII history! Choose a faction and take part in countless battles to decide the fate of Europe! You will engage in different missions through your campaign:
Deathmatch. Fight to the last man standing.
Kill VIP. Kill all the specified enemy units within a limited time
Protect VIP. Protect a specified group of ally units for a certain time.
Wave defense. Defend a map against waves of incoming enemies.

SANDBOX MODE
Do whatever you want, think of most ridiculous scenarios and recreate them in sandbox mode. The only thing limiting you here is your imagination... and CPU

SHADOW MODE
Face your worst enemy, the one that knows you best... yourself! A survival mode where you face your victorious armies from previous battles. How far you can get?

SECRET WEAPONS & SPECIAL TACTICS UNITS
We are not even sure you should be reading this... Do we have trained animals, nuclear bombs, paratrooper commandos, flying bombs, gliding tanks, time portals and more... don't be ridiculous! But check our wishlist campaign section...

Bought it instantly
I think Red Alert is the last of the series I played.

The "installation" cinematics are very cool. Sound Blaster

Up till 1 am here 

Yeah this remaster ticks all the boxes. It's like I'm 11 years old again.

The soundtrack is alone worth the $20 imo.

I got C&C as part of a bundle in the 90s or early 00s. I couldn't get into it, but I was never much of an RTS player.

[The Brain]

Is Tiberian Sun available remastered? I played a lot of Dune 2 but I never got into C&C or Red Alert other than Tiberian Sun.

Ugh,

Unfortunately this is only the first C&C and Red Alert. 

This looks like a big hit for EA though, so hopefully we'll see a remaster of Tiberian Sun (and Red Alert 2) eventually
