Gamespot has a preview of the ambitious real-time strategy game from Gas Powered Games, Supreme Commander. The sheer scope of this game is mind-boggling, and should be different from most other RTS games, especially since it comes from Chris Taylor of Total Annihiliation fame. This preview covers the different factions, gameplay mechanics, and the theater of war.

We had a chance recently to visit Gas Powered Games’ offices in Redmond, Washington, to get an early look at Supreme Commander. And from what we saw, this is a game that takes some of the core concepts of Total Annihilation and applies them on an unprecedented, awesome scale.
