Supreme Commander is a Real-Time Strategy Game RTSG designed by Chris Taylor, set in a far future world. Although it was designed by Chris Taylor, it is not a sequel to his previous RTSG, Total Annihilation, but rather a "spiritual successor", which implements the same gameplay mechanics and physics logic which was pioneered in Total Annihilation.
Since the release of Forged Alliance, it has been referred to as Vanilla SupCom, the Old SupCom or Classic SupCom.
Official Web Site
The official Supreme Commander web site is at http://www.supremecommander.com/. At one time this site included general game information, news, technical support and a community forum. Now it is totally devoid of anything relating to Supreme Commander or FA, and is now totally devoted to Supreme Commander 2. The forum can be directly accessed on the GPGnet site.
