About Micro Wars

Micro Wars condenses the classic real time strategy formula down into a small, compact form. Build a base, mine some resources, train some units, and then make sure to micro and position them well in short, fast paced battles.

Pick from 13 unique commanders, each with a special twist on gameplay and a unique ability. Maybe, you’ll pick Elias, the mechanic, who can research new units faster and cheaper than his comrades and can call down a healing beam to replenish his depleted forces. Perhaps instead you’ll choose Voltaire, the master tactician, who can leverage the terrain to his advantage and can construct a temporary bunker anywhere on the battlefield. Or, you prefer to rule the skies with Estelle, the flying ace, who’s aircraft carry heavier payloads to their targets and who can call in an airstrike to deal devastating damage in a wide swath across the battlefield. Craft a strategy suited to your specific playstyle and devastate your opponents!

With your commander, further customize your army by choosing 9 units to bring into battle. Will you keep an even mix of early and late game across infantry, vehicles, and air units or will you specialize to execute your strategy? Units follow a rock-paper-scissors model, such as flamethrower units burning enemy infantry to a crisp, but barely able to leave a scratch on tanks. With over 30 units to pick from, there's always a fresh approach to take to crush your opponents!

With a selection of armies ready to take to the battlefield, bring your friends along in online battles with up to 8 players. Maybe you'll team up to climb the ladders in the ranked matchmaking, or jump into a custom game lobby for a wild free-for-all. A builtin map editor and the Steam Workshop lets you explore endless creativity and map mode types if you aren't feeling like matchmaking. Or, perhaps you want to watch your friends and take notes on their strategies with the observer mode and replays?

Maybe you need a break from all that online gaming and you want to work through the campaign following Elias and Voltaire as they fight for the Union against the resurging Dominion forces.

No matter what mode you want to play, take Micro Wars on the go with a touch-friendly interface and an even playing field between mouse/keyboard and touch.

Micro Wars is a passion project with a small development team.

✦ AI summary

Microwars is praised as a fast-paced action RTS with engaging deckbuilding mechanics that encourage theorycrafting and keep matches interesting, along with solid map editing tools and a responsive developer. Players appreciate the blend of classic RTS gameplay with modern ideas, strong unit micro and positioning depth, and the game's compatibility with Linux via Proton, though some note the campaign is still limited and early-stage balance issues exist that the dev is actively addressing.

Microwars is a fantastic, fast paced RTS game with a ton of cool units and combat mechanics. As the name suggests, its a game where micro is super important, and positioning super important. By far its best feature is its deckbuilding, which provides great theorycrafting and makes sure games stay interesting. Definitely recommend

Pretty good "Action RTS", it has some interesting mechanics and its overall a satisfying mix of classic RTS games and newer ideas. Haven't really played the campaign.

Micro Wars is a great full-featured RTS. And it works great with Proton! The map editor is great, and the campaign (though only a few missions right now) is well-balanced and a good intro to the game. The dev has been super responsive to bugs and feedback. The lore isn't necessarily a huge draw, but there's enough development to give the campaign a bit of depth. I'd recommend it (and I appreciate it working with Proton / Linux)!

A good C&C Rivals inspired game. Flaws that are currently present in this early stage of development are easily fixable and are worked on rn, dev listens to players and works on fixing any hiccups (be that clitches, bugs or balance).
