I saw that this game has a lot of cool Chinese/Soviet/North Korean military hardware but I checked the gameplay and it looks really complex and hard. I do enjoy RTS games like Command and Conquer, Age of Empires, and World in Conflict.

Any experiences with the game and how hard it is to really play?

    Thanks, this is a lot of useful info, I guess the gameplay doesn't sound too overwhelming unless you want to do high-level gameplay.

    I just don't enjoy games like EVE Online where you are completely lost unless you read through the manual and a wiki.

    I don't plan to play much multiplayer since I don't enjoy how stressful 1v1 games are when you play them with random people.

    Is it possible to enjoy the game in single-player mode? Besides the campaign, there's probably some sort of skirmish mode too?

      Yes on both counts, there's 5 campaigns of increasing scale and difficulty, and for me it took a couple attempts at each before I figured out what worked and what didn't. The AI has a peculiar way of playing that you'll learn to abuse, but it's not so bad that you'll feel like you're playing a different game. If nothing else it's fun watching dozens of vehicles crammed into a tiny area suddenly evaporate to cluster bombs.
