Master of Command

 
Master of Command puts you in charge of grand 18th-century armies, demanding both the mind of a general and the nerve of a survivor. Developed and published by Armchair History Interactive, this real-time tactical strategy game lets you experience the gritty decision-making of the Seven Years’ War like never before. You manage every aspect of your army, from supply lines and morale to the battlefields where timing and choices shape history. Combining roguelike campaign structure, persistent army management, and enormous customization, Master of Command offers a challenging new take on historical warfare.
Lead the Line: Features and Gameplay

Engage in real-time tactical battles where morale, stamina, positioning, and terrain can decide victory or defeat. Every clash is an opportunity to make—and lose—history.
Equip and customize over 150 historical units. Regiments, officers, equipment, uniforms, and even flags can be changed to fit your strategy or personal taste.
Play on a fully real-time campaign map. Move forces, scout with fog of war, and decide when to rest, resupply, or march quickly before the enemy gets ahead.
Your losses matter. Units gain experience, officers rise through the ranks, and every casualty is felt in later battles. The fate of your army persists across the campaign.
Each region and encounter is procedurally generated. No two campaigns are exactly the same. You will juggle food, fatigue, and morale while responding to threats and opportunities that appear as you advance.
Every action on the map, from pillaging villages to forcing a risky river crossing, changes the enemy’s plan and the story you create.

Master of Command vs Total War and Grand Tactician

Compared to Grand Tactician: Master of Command emphasizes real-time movement, army fatigue, and logistics. Choices off the battlefield matter as much as direct combat.
