Ah, you mean Empire Earth. I loved that game, it had a great soundtrack.

Empire earth slapped so hard. Both 1 and 2. Honestly now that I’m thinking about it, going to set aside some time this weekend and play it again!

Sounds like it indeed. The balance was... interesting, a single tank could not win against a dozen cavemen.

I don't see how a single tank could win against 12 cavemen, but I digress. It's a video game.

Weapons are designed with an opponent in mind, and guarded against the expected threat models from that opponent. Everything breaks down when the opponent does not what you want them to.

Right right Empire Earth! My memory is a little fuzzy it must have been 20 years ago.

I don't remember Age of Empires having an atomic age?

It was probably Rise of Nations or one of the other similar games.
