What makes Dust Front RTS different?

It combines two layers of strategy in one campaign: classic real-time battles where you build a base and command an army, and a turn-based grand-strategy global map where you manage economy, territory, and technology. Your troops persist as veterans that gain ranks and move between fronts as strike groups or defensive garrisons, so you can lead the same units from the start of a war to its end. The deeper systems are covered under The Global Map, Units and Armies, and Technology and Doctrines.

Who is making it?

Dust Front RTS is developed and published by rtsDimon, a solo independent developer. It is an indie real-time strategy game with grand-strategy elements, a procedurally generated world, and a non-linear campaign.

Is there mature content?

Yes. The game contains death animations of human units and mutants, with blood and corpses.
