OCTOBER UPDATE - NEW VIDEO WITH TEASERS/INFO FOR NEW CONTENT: ruclips.net/video/gCd8y9biozs/видео.html Thanks to the devs for partnering with the channel; I've legit had so much fun with this- don't be surprised if you see another Line War video down the line, it's been very refreshing! I hope you all have a great Weekend! !Get Line war today! lurk.ly/4K32nX
Id say it took me a couple hours to get really used to it, but yeah APM on this is low (at least in PvE) it's definitely different from most other RTS's Ive played!
There are a few fun RTS games that don't require high APM skills that I know of: * The Command & Conquer series * Tempest Rising * WARNO * The Steel Division series * Regiments * Broken Arrow * Terminator: Dark Fate: Defiance * The Great War * Mech Commander series * Supreme Commander series * The Annihilation series (Total Annihilation, Planetary Annihilation, Industrial Annihilation) * The Great War * The Homeworld series
Unfortunately for me it's still too close to "realistic modern military"... Ever since my own involuntary stay in the army those kinds of games, as well as replaying historic modern wars, make me a bit uncomfortable... :( Which is a shame because this looks really awesome... If it had lasers and spaceships I'd be all over it. Edit: As I look at it closer, it might be astract enough for me to enjoy it...
The guy who made the models for this game also runs a youtube channel were he teaches people who make models in blender, you can find him under the name Imphenzia.
Wtf you mean you been playing for years. It’s dead. You can’t even get a match. Only matches I could get were in demo and right after release. Couldn’t even get a match after 30 minutes of waiting like 3 months ago. Dead game.
@@Kesen2003 Just not true. Been playing almost every day for years. 2.000 hours. Currently playing official tournament, and at this exact moment 103 online players. Is it a big player base ? No, definitely not. But it’s 100% not dead.
Hi Shermanator and everyone else, It’s been a true pleasure to see the success of this video and the positive response from the community. It came at a time when I was feeling a bit down after the AI release didn’t meet sales expectations, but this video truly lifted my spirits. Who knows-history might even say it marked a turning point for the project. Thank you all for watching, and a huge thanks to Shermanator for creating such an excellent video! Sincerely, Basantos
Okay dude I got an idea. imagine lasagna. And now imagine lasagna, but in 40k! It would be so much better! I almost get wet just thinking about the smell of Henry Cavill standing in my kitchen, making me the new 40k lasagna in ultramarine blue.
While I missed the sale, I still bought this game and have been enjoying it so far. There’s definitely a learning curve, but I had never heard of this and it fits nicely in a niche I never knew I needed. Thanks for covering! Very entertaining as well. Would love to see you play it again.
@@theShermanator it’s very similar to Total annihilation but with a more updated engine. Handles large scale battles very well with a lot of quality of life improvements that make it easier to handle. Try checking it out if you’re into it; it’s cool to play and amazing to watch
Loved the video @theShermanator! Can't wait for the next video man! Line War looks like a Cross between Axis & Allies and Hoi4, am I the only one who sees this or am I Crazy? Great Game either way and can't wait to see more on the Channel man! Also, Aircraft Carriers are Great to provide Additional Air Support for your Forces. U.S. Navy Maintains a Policy of having no less than 10 Carriers at any given time, since World War Two. I did also get a Hint of "ICBM" in this with the Nukes though. Let me know what you think about this and I'll catch you in your next video man!
Yooo that's the most interesting war game that i ever heard, and i might need to find that game as soon as i get a pc, because i am a death to the enemy in every strategy game
@@adbp1513 Key word: Multiplayer Beta, the base is fine it just needs tweaking, and like 50% of the units were missing, like Drones for the US. I myself quite enjoyed it with that in mind instead of expecting a complete game, much better than Warno by a large margin.
This game feels similar to Starcraft, just because of the player vs ai part and how you can scale ai. I remember my dad and I would play against the zero with our two respective factions.
Great video, I hope it will introduce more players. Line War has so big vibe of RUSE.. and a bit of Hearts of Iron battle planer, where you draw lines and assign armies etc ;)
Ayooo this is what i was looking for months , im to stupid for hoi 4 so i was looking for something inbetween Risk and Hoi4. Was playing Supremacy for a little bit but playerbase is dead , this is looking good :)
Does it have singleplay? I quite like the game but the population does not look very good and i still have ptsd when playing online rts from the days grinding sc2's ladder
This was in COOP; but yea you can do solo vs AI too; I wouldnt dare go into PVP myself until I had a firm grasp on the game, feels like I would get destroyed online lmao, coop/sp vs AI is fun however
This looks really cool, hope there is modding though. Visually it feels a bit like early ravenfield and it but it would be cool to switch up the aesthetic, and shrink models maybe to give it a total war feel.
@@theShermanator that would be something but also take the fun out of it. I do enjoy when I'm able to make alliance's with them though, been playing a lot of HOIV
Holy shit this actually looked great. I've been looking for a new RTS games to play for years now so this might be it Edit: just checked the steam reviews, it has negative ratings 😢
this was actually the equivalent of about 2 AI, to match Davidson and I being 2 players, but through the handicap system you can make the AI very difficult!
this is only a twenty minute vid but the tinny "medic!" voiceline was uhhh getting repetitive haha. The PvE mode sounds like this game is getting back on my wishlist!
does anyone else think that the voice over sounds kinda AI? i checked a video from last year and the cadence feels different. The way some words are pronounced seem off aswell ( not in a ESL kinda way either). This is just the Intro btw imo
@@TheShinigami244 lol I tried my best to make the vo intro sound good, cuz its sponsored ofc, I am actually ESL, first language is Dutch But no, I dont use AI for VO or video stuff
@@flankz2950 I mean you are welcome to try it out for yourself! I had a great time and played a bunch of the game even after I made this video - in the end you can always refund if under 2 hrs if I am not mistaken so
Looks cool...unfortunately most of the content and interesting stuff is all TBA. In 2 years they've released a solo/co-op skirmish mode...and not much else. Discouraging.
Im sorry - however, sales come and go, I would assume the next time it goes on sale again it might be the same % discount, just wishlist it, so it gives you a pop up when it goes on sale :D
@@theShermanator That would be even weirder. Usually it's Americans from the southern parts of USA who pronounce it that way. But not exclusively. Nvm. It's just a pet peeve of mine, it doesn't really affect the video in a significant way, there are much worse things that might happen. So... shrug i guess.
I don't know how I feel about this game. Looks interesting, but what you don't see up front is that the game has no singleplayer AI. Its all PvP. EDIT: Apparently they just recently added Singleplayer AI, so I stand corrected.

!Get Line war today! lurk.ly/4K32nX
Thats a sus link
sketchy ass link
this feels like some fresh air in rts without micro intensive gameplay but a more fun strategic focus
it's exactly what it is, I play it since the demo. And I like it a lot!
It’s literally dead. I bought it a long time ago and it’s been dead ever since. Can’t even get matches.
You should try again...there's a Lot more Player online now and also they added AI
@@Kesen2003You obviously we’re not in the discord. I got it last year in December and I always had someone to play with!
This feels like obvious paid advertisement
lol
Been looking for a RTS game that doesn't require immense multi-tasking and APM for a while now. I think this is the one.
Id say it took me a couple hours to get really used to it, but yeah APM on this is low (at least in PvE) it's definitely different from most other RTS's Ive played!
@@tranquilclaws8470 I also recommend Dune Spice Wars but that can feel a little more 4x than RTS
There are a few fun RTS games that don't require high APM skills that I know of:
* The Command & Conquer series
* Tempest Rising
* WARNO
* The Steel Division series
* Regiments
* Broken Arrow
* Terminator: Dark Fate: Defiance
* The Great War
* Mech Commander series
* Supreme Commander series
* The Annihilation series (Total Annihilation, Planetary Annihilation, Industrial Annihilation)
* The Great War
* The Homeworld series
youre looking for an autobattler
the big popular one right now for PvP is Mecha Bellum btw
Also check "regiments" out. I think It would suit your needs pretty well
This is the closest to an RTS game based on the Ace Combat universe that we're ever going to get.
What is blud yammering 😂
if we got a mod with some names/models I could kinda see it, now just need Strangereal lmao
Ace Combat is a series of arcade flight sims.
Is line war a pc only game
Unfortunately for me it's still too close to "realistic modern military"... Ever since my own involuntary stay in the army those kinds of games, as well as replaying historic modern wars, make me a bit uncomfortable... :(
Which is a shame because this looks really awesome... If it had lasers and spaceships I'd be all over it.
Edit: As I look at it closer, it might be astract enough for me to enjoy it...
One of the best RTS games i've ever played!
Its genuinely very fun

Oh thats actually really cool

I've been playing Line War for years and didn't realize planes could respond to entrenchment commands!
Nice vid!
haha I think that was just an assumption on my end!
2.000 hours and never realized! Mind blown 🤯 😂
@@sodaquackers IKR!!!!!

Now we just need a 40K mod
ha star wars, 40k, I want ww2 :D
BATTLETECH would be more fitting.
I’m waiting for far cry primal mod, get on my level
Okay dude I got an idea. imagine lasagna. And now imagine lasagna, but in 40k! It would be so much better! I almost get wet just thinking about the smell of Henry Cavill standing in my kitchen, making me the new 40k lasagna in ultramarine blue.
I'm very happy this game is getting some much needed attention. It still has a long way to go but it has great foundations.
It really has some great foundations, can't wait to see what the future may bring!
Love that you're covering Line War. A highly under appreciated game.
Its actually hella fun
HAVE MERCY ON MY WALLET STEAM
lmao

There’s definitely a learning curve, but I had never heard of this and it fits nicely in a niche I never knew I needed.
Thanks for covering! Very entertaining as well. Would love to see you play it again.
Happy to hear it Steven, will definitely be covering it again soon!
This looks like my dream game. Always wanted a RTS/4X hybrid game with a slightly slower, more strategic pace.
Best RTS in many years!
its been very interesting
You gotta play Beyond All Reason!
Never heard of it before
@@theShermanator it’s very similar to Total annihilation but with a more updated engine. Handles large scale battles very well with a lot of quality of life improvements that make it easier to handle. Try checking it out if you’re into it; it’s cool to play and amazing to watch
Zero K is also worth it as you can draw lines and units move into lines.
your attention to detail is impressive. well done!
Thank you! Cheers!
Loved the video @theShermanator! Can't wait for the next video man! Line War looks like a Cross between Axis & Allies and Hoi4, am I the only one who sees this or am I Crazy?

Basically the Light version of Beyond All Reason
I can see it
Yooo that's the most interesting war game that i ever heard, and i might need to find that game as soon as i get a pc, because i am a death to the enemy in every strategy game
Finally it’s getting its proper media coverage😭😁
:D
Definitely want to see some more of this from you man!
Very glad to see Line War getting more attention
its pretty fun!
i love how the steam sale for this ended the 11th and i saw this video the 12th
sorry man, there's gonna be another sale I assume in the future so
@@theShermanator all good, that’s just how RUclips is lol I never even heard of this game til this video. RUclips has been holding out on me lol
You should do some Wargame Red Dragon some time, its an old game but still very alive and fun, especially against friends.
I love Wargame, might do some!
Broken Arrow will save us from Eugen
@@CausticSpace Doubt it, the demo seemed fun but the multiplayer beta was unoptimized and unbalanced as shit with ZERO pacing.
@@adbp1513 Key word: Multiplayer Beta, the base is fine it just needs tweaking, and like 50% of the units were missing, like Drones for the US.
I myself quite enjoyed it with that in mind instead of expecting a complete game, much better than Warno by a large margin.
So cool to see a VS Computer mode on this game! It might finally be time to play it.
Its definitely fun with a friend, can make the AI quite challenging as well
We need more people playing.
They Beyond All Reason if you have not, it is truly a peak RTS with a strong PvP community. It is coming to steam soon and will be successful
Was looking for a less APM intensive strategy game, so I think I'll stick with this.
This game feels similar to Starcraft, just because of the player vs ai part and how you can scale ai. I remember my dad and I would play against the zero with our two respective factions.
Great video, I hope it will introduce more players. Line War has so big vibe of RUSE.. and a bit of Hearts of Iron battle planer, where you draw lines and assign armies etc ;)
Cheers!
Sweet man. It's hard to find good games. Going to try that tomorrow. Cheers.
@@seanaugagnon6383 cheers!
Just here to say love to see some Line War on the channel!
@@Tharshey 🙏💪
Ayooo this is what i was looking for months , im to stupid for hoi 4 so i was looking for something inbetween Risk and Hoi4. Was playing Supremacy for a little bit but playerbase is dead , this is looking good :)
ha this is indeed kinda in between
Real War Rogue States vibes. I wish it was more detailed in a way
My first association watching this is the civilization stage in Spore.
@@TheWolfwiththeDragon haha fair
Will there be workshop support or no? No workshop is a massive deal breaker for me tbh.
This game seems awesome buying it now
its p cool
It was like saving the French again in the beginning there.
if anything, Davidson was heroically holding the left (read getting attacked over and over) letting me get a beachhead setup!
This game + HOI4 = the macro strategist gamer's dream game.
Ha I can see that
Does it have singleplay? I quite like the game but the population does not look very good and i still have ptsd when playing online rts from the days grinding sc2's ladder
This was in COOP; but yea you can do solo vs AI too; I wouldnt dare go into PVP myself until I had a firm grasp on the game, feels like I would get destroyed online lmao, coop/sp vs AI is fun however
this reminds me of that one robolox RTS game looks fun
Ha I saw more people say that for sure
Okay the way he says "Depot" made me laugh.
@@Lildoc911 in hindsight I see how I pronounced it wrong, I should add im not a native speaker
@@theShermanator brother, even native speakers fuck shit up. Have you met your average english speaker? XD
Been playing since Beta, love the game!
reverse d day, land on the beach and set up defense
@@hagalathekido 🙃
the constructions look like those from command and conquer
ha kinda yea
This looks really cool, hope there is modding though. Visually it feels a bit like early ravenfield and it but it would be cool to switch up the aesthetic, and shrink models maybe to give it a total war feel.
Would be cool to see modding in the future, I am not sure..
@@theShermanator Yes, checked the discord and it seems intensive and unlikely to implement mod support sadly.
this looks really cool but i doubt my friends would play this with me, and i probably can't even afford it anyway lol
Haha, perfect cut at the end.. ☢
Glad you liked that lmao
0:38 Did you "Mod" Support or "Bot" Support? If the latter, is the game modable?
its bot support, aka AI, I think the store page mentions future player made content, but youd wanna double check that!
@@theShermanator Cool. Hoping that if Mod Support comes, I can play this game set in WW2 or Cold War or even WW1.
@@ethannaftalin2395 oh that would be amazing
Hey Sherm! Fellow RUclipsr here, I’m keen to try this game out, can we arrange an evening to play for content? 😊
If you are looking for more people to play with, I am up for some Line War.
5 minutes in the video I bought the game
🤙💥
this gives me rise of nations vibes I'll have to check it out
@@ghillieguy52 cheers mate
I played total annihilation in 90:s and thinking how the game would be in 30 years... This is almost the same! 🤣🤣
@@fredrikeriksson5199 you should try beyond all reason. it's an open source ta successor.
Finally, SupCom x Wargame
Ha yea
Oh damn, they finally added singleplayer content?
Too bad I missed the sale.
always next sale!
The AI can Resign KOOL
Wish we could ask them to lmao, just constantly pester em

@@adamgross1157 more sales will happen I assume, you can always wishlist it ig
Holy shit this actually looked great. I've been looking for a new RTS games to play for years now so this might be it
Edit: just checked the steam reviews, it has negative ratings 😢
Im seeing 75% positive recent and 81% all time?
feel like a game like this could be launched in other platforms like playstation, xbox and mobile
(bro is dreaming too high with mobile)
Seems to be based on Risk (boardgame)
I enjoyed the demo when it came out. I just haven't bought it yet
Its pretty cool!
Risk turns with a mix of Axis & Allies turns RTS basically !?
I could see that, also I love that old Axis and Allies RTS game lmao
lol allready been playing it just finally needed a youtuber to push for it it so the player base would come back
ha, cheers! the AI is fun to play against too though!
looks like the AI can put up a challenge
this was actually the equivalent of about 2 AI, to match Davidson and I being 2 players, but through the handicap system you can make the AI very difficult!
Reminds me of Europa Universalis 4
maybe a bit?
This looks🔥🔥🔥🔥
I miss BattleDawn so much
cant say I ever played it myself
@@theShermanator This game reminded me of it even though BattleDawn is tick based. Was an excellent flash mmo strategy game
It'd be cool if you tried out Foxhole soon, its about to have an update war that'll change weather.
I should give FH a try, just feels like there's so much to cover haha
