Mar 10, 2017 “War, huh, what is it good for?” – Edwin Star, War from the album War and Peace Well apparently, it’s good for good times. War games are all over the map. So, to honor our ever-present source of joy and soul-crushing doom, Mac Gamer HQ presents you with a four-star general overview of the best war games for Mac.

World of Tanks, World of Warplanes, World of Battleships will soon combine to form a massive online game of risk.

Russia, Victor Kislyi explains to me, is a tank culture. America, he says, is a warplane culture. Japan? They are battleships.
It seems appropriate that the world, as seen through the eyes of the president of Wargaming.net, is a Venn diagram of war machines.
World of Tanks was the game that helped launch Kislyi's already successful strategy game development company into the stratosphere. The massively multiplayer online tank assault game launched in Russia half a year before it made its way to North America, because Kislyi knew that Russians love tanks.
As he describes it, there was no risk.
He feels the same way about Wargaming.net's upcoming massively multiplayer online dogfighting game, World of Warplanes. Only this time it is in America that this latest endeavor seems a sure thing.
World of Battleships, still in the early stages of development, will do very well in Japan, Kislyi tells me.
'It will do decent in Russia .. and England .. and America,' he says.

We're sitting in a second floor conference room packed with World of Tanks and Warplanes mousepads, bags, sunglasses, even boxed remote control airplanes. Kislyi, the founder of Belarus, Minsk-based Wargaming.net, greets me at the door when I arrive with a broad smile and a thick Russian accent. He gestures to a massive platter laden with fruit and cheese as we sit opposite one another at a heavy wooden conference table and asks if I want something to eat or drink. The floor thrums with the noise of tank and air battles. The meeting rooms are perched above a massive E3 booth packed with rows of computers running World of Tanks and World of Warplanes. A building-sized television endlessly loops video of the games, and History Channel style graphics of engagements.

This booth, roughly the same size as the booths of more well known developers like Take-Two and Warner Bros Entertainment, is a stark reminder of Wargaming's sudden rise to popularity and success.

Wargaming.net, Kislyi tells me, currently has about 900 employees. About 450 of those employees are developers, the other half are operations experts spread across ten offices located from California's Bay Area to Russia.

Those 900 people are researching, making and maintaining games for the company's 30 million registered players.

I'm still clattering away at my laptop's keyboard, when Kislyi turns to a marketing person in the room and orders: 'Give him the statistics.'

They're impressive.

100 million battles a month. 14 billion shots fired a month. 1.3 billion tanks destroyed a month.

While the World of titles are graphically rich, strategically intense games, all three are driven by math. The numbers of battle, the calculations of physics and chance, and the careful balance of percentages can make or break Kislyi's games. And he's intensely aware of that.

'We have math guys who analyze all of this stuff,' he tells me. 'They have multiple graphs.'

And the most important calculations are the ones used to determine the cost of repairing and maintaining the games' namesakes. While World of Tanks is a free-to-play game, players need to spend in-game silver to repair their tanks, and soon their planes. Sometimes the money earned in a battle won't pay for that repair so they have to buy gold with real cash, or go fight smaller, more successful skirmishes to earn the money needed to repair their other vehicles.

Finding the sweet spot for repair costs and money earned in a battle is literally a science, one that Kislyi devotes an entire team of mathematicians to.

'There are a lot of statistics behind it,' he says.

World of Tanks pulls vehicles from a range of classic battles and conflicts, from World War II to the Korean War. It will never include modern tank fights, Kislyi said.

'Modern tanks fight without seeing each other,' he said. 'It's all missiles and satellites. One modern tank would destroy an entire field of historic tanks.'

World of Tanks launched with just six different armored vehicles. Now there are more than 140 vehicles. The game will eventually top out at about 500.

The goal, Kislyi said, is to release new vehicles every month.

'We have years of vehicles still,' he said. 'We still have Japan and England, for instance.'

The same will be true for Warplanes.

'There are more planes than there are tanks,' he said. 'Everyone had warplanes.'

Already the game has about 60 types of planes from Germany, the Soviet Union and the U.S. After launch the plan is to expand the planes to include British and American models, he said.

All of the war games are strictly historical affairs. There is very little room for fantasy in the battlefields of Wargaming.net.

The tanks of World of Tanks are carefully detailed by a team of researchers who spend their days in libraries and museums pouring over books, blueprints and sometimes even the real thing.

What little fiction that has been injected into the vehicles of the triad of war games still has roots in history.

For instance, Germany ceased production of tanks in 1945, Kislyi says, but there are plenty of blueprints around for some never-built armored vehicles, the so-called German super weapons. In those cases, Wargaming's researchers use the original blueprints and a little creativity to craft in-game working vehicles.

Little mac and game and watch luigi. The series' subsequent installments, transitioned Mac into a full-fledged playable character. In addition to using his updated design from the Wii version of Punch-Out!!, his Giga Mac transformation from that same game is also featured as his 'Final Smash', a one-use special move that can only be activated upon breaking a 'Smash Ball'.

'We come to the level of fantasy that our players accept,' he said.

Down on the floor, in the swirling mayhem of E3, I find my way to a computer, settling down between two other players among a bank of screens. The beta version of World of Warplanes is running endless dogfights throughout the show.

The game supports a variety of controls — from simplified to expert — using keyboard and mouse, gamepad or even a flight stick. I tried playing first with a keyboard and mouse, the way a person who's never experienced a flight combat game might. While the mouse and keyboard controls are cleverly crafted and loaded up with enough visual cues to make playing relatively easy, I still preferred using a gamepad.

Combat and flight with the controller was relatively straight forward, and the game's graphics are impressively detailed. Most impressive, though, is the amount of attention the developers paid to not just the plane, but the plane in motion. Forced stalls cause the propeller to slow and then stop, enemy gunfire peppers wings and the fuselage with holes. Planes smoke, wings rip off — there's full deformation. The endless dog fights feel acrobatic and tense.

Even while the team is hard at work on finishing up World of Warplanes, they're still putting a lot of effort into World of Tanks, Kislyi said.

'You don't imagine how much new stuff our players want from us every day,' he said.

The teams are working on new modes, and also experimenting with creating maps and rule sets that will allow players to faithfully fight through historic battles.

Perhaps the most important effort the team is working on is Clan Wars.

In Wargaming's universe, Clan Wars isn't just a way for people to buddy up and play the same games they've already been playing. Clan Wars is how Kislyi plans to neatly lace together all three of his company's massively multiplayer games.

At the highest level, Clan Wars is essentially Risk that takes place on the company's Global Map.

Clans of 15 to 100 players will fight over ownership of province of the map, with each chip in a province representing a single tank .. or plane .. or battleship controlled by a real player.

Control of a territory will net the player's clan regular deliveries of silver, which can be used in the game to repair vehicles and buy consumables. So there's a direct benefit in participating and winning.

Initially, when one clan invades another clan's province, a scheduled battle kicks off within World of Tanks with players dropping into their vehicles and shooting it out for ownership of the territory.

Eventually, the plan is to incorporate both World of Warplanes and World of Battleships into Clan Wars as well, Kislyi said.

'So before tanks, we have to fight an air battle,' he said. 'If I win I get two extra air strikes during the match, or maybe a recon aircraft.'

Once Battlships launches, victory in a war at sea would give the victor barrage support in that ultimate tank battle for ownership of a territory.

Currently only about 20 percent of World of Tanks players are participating in Clan Wars, which is still in beta, Kislyi said. That might be because Clan Wars requires a deeper level of commitment than a core group of the game's fanbase are used to giving.

'We are taking historically accurate, niche-targeted, hardcore games and making them accessible for millions of players.'

One of the keys to World of Tanks success, Kislyi believes, is that it offers people, especially older gamers with families, a chance to quickly play a game.

'If you only have five to seven minutes, you can sneak in once or twice to battle while your wife is preparing to go out,' he said.

The ability to quickly pick up and play a match of World of Tanks has the team also thinking about exploring a mobile version of the experience, Kislyi said. But it doesn't sound like they're very interested in bringing their game to consoles, at least not yet.

'Those big companies are too big, too slow, too bureaucratic,' Kislyi said. 'It's irritating sometimes. They need to change or they will lag behind.'

Besides, Kislyi explained, the company has its hands full expanding World of Tanks, designing World of Battleshipsand running the World of Warplanes beta test.

World of Warplanes will hit this year.

More than 100,000 people applied for the beta test the day it was announced, he said. Another half million have applied since.

'We are currently in closed beta,' he said. 'In about two months we are shooting for open beta with millions of players participating, many hundreds of thousands at least.'

Kislyi said the company is determined to launch the new game before the end of the year.

'We will be following the World of Tanks life,' he said. 'We know what parameters are important at which life stage.'

Then they move on to Battleships, and with each game, the company plans to stay true to its roots.

'We are taking historically accurate, niche-targeted, hardcore games,' Kislyi said, 'and making them accessible for millions of players.'

“War, huh, what is it good for?” – Edwin Star, War from the album War and Peace

Well… apparently, it’s good for good times. War games are all over the map. So, to honor our ever-present source of joy and soul-crushing doom, Mac Gamer HQ presents you with a four-star general overview of the best war games for Mac.

As always, we’re going for different styles and genres, as well as different price points and system requirements. We aim to help you discover great new games and perhaps one of these will be perfect for you:

Want even more good games for Mac? These are the 100 Top Mac games you can play today.

No round-up of the best Mac war games for Mac would be complete without touching on the big franchises that have left their mark on Mac gaming, so I’ll start with two of the major ones. These are perfect for those of you who enjoy crushing your enemies under the heel of your polished and well-kept boots.

The condition of man… is a condition of war of everyone against everyone – Thomas Hobbes

War is all-encompassing and to give you the taste of blood you crave, the Total War series relies on a dual-engine approach. First, there’s a real-time war theater which allows you to command your troops’ every move on the battlefield. It lets you deploy your soldiers, define your engagement strategy, groupings, pace, and more. In between battles, there’s a turn-based strategy interface (think a very stripped down version of Sid Meier’s Civilization series) that lets you construct the whole of your war machine. Different games in the Total War franchise take you from before the birth of Christ to the end of the Napoleonic period and all over the globe.

MacGamer HQ’s head-honcho Ric is a fan of the franchise’s take on feudal japan, Total War: Shogun 2, but I’m definitely fond of the most recent release, Total War: Attila. Attila takes you to the end of the western Roman empire and puts you in control of one of the Mediterranean or Germanic tribes that carved up former Roman territory, and their enemy’s hides in the process. The game features a skirmish mode, historical battles mode (which lets you relive some epic battlefield confrontations of the period) and a campaign mode. Campaign mode features a dynasty interface that allows you to play the court game of intrigue if you’re the type that likes your war in intimate settings. You can purchase additional campaigns and culture packs if your favorite war-mongering pack of blood-thirsty maniacs isn’t in the base game.

The Wargame series, from Eugen Systems, is a real-time strategy (RTS) wargame that gives you control of Cold War Era militaries across the globe. One of the biggest selling points is Eugen’s effort to bring you as close to the real battlefield as possible, accurately reproducing hundreds of military vehicles, troops, and weapons. The campaign modes have grown with each release and the multiplayer modes are worth hundreds of hours of replay value. A unique aspect of the game is the satellite camera mode which, on its own, is little more than a cool video effect but, in reality, demonstrates the scale of the game’s battlefields.

Wargame: European Escalation, gives the player the chance to control one of the Cold War militaries in Thatcher-era Europe. The game’s sequel, Wargame: Airland Battle, takes you right back to the battlefield in a conflict between NATO and Warsaw Pact forces. But if you had to buy just one, the series’ latest, Wargame: Red Dragon, brings you near the end of the Cold War and adds a variety of the Asian communist states, expanding the theater of war to a truly global scale.

The RTS genre is dominated by war games, but the variety of styles still leaves Mac players with plenty of options for demolishing their foes.

The two most powerful warriors are patience and time – Leo Tolstoy

Another Mac Gamer HQ favorite, Company of Heroes 2 is the sequel to the original Company of Heroes, released over a decade ago. The sequel takes you directly onto the Eastern Front of WWII for a close-up look at the vagaries of the war you’re waging. The Essence 3.0 engine provides a beautifully rendered war theater that utilizes a variety of in-game systems to enhance the realism of the battlefield and encourage victory by skill rather than firepower. The destructible environments never cease to amaze me and the many ways the enemy can be countered with the right units is equally impressive.

The three released DLC packs introduce more armies for single and multiplayer modes (including action on the Western Front), each of which carries their own strengths and flaws. You can pick up the CoH2: Master Collection for a tidy $39.99 and choose how you want to win and on which map to reign supreme.

Paradox Interactive is well known for its grand-strategy simulations. Each of their titles features an adjustable real-time clock allowing you to watch your decisions play out in a matter of minutes or extending the results of your strategic decisions to hours and days. Their games can bring you from the start of the crusades through the end of the WWII; the company’s most recent offering, Stellaris, will even take you hundreds of years into the future for galaxy-wide statecraft. Each game has it’s own idiosyncrasies and loyalists, but they’ll all give you your fix if grand strategy is your thing.

Hearts of Iron 4 is the company’s most war-oriented, giving you god-like command over pretty much any country that existed in the WWII period. An almost ridiculously complex technology system lets you guide your country’s development as you like, while diplomacy systems let you conduct trade, form and break alliances and treaties, and appoint advisors to help you turn the world from a divided battleground into one of your making. The military system provides you with the chance to specialize your battalions. Pause the game, set your plans, bump up the game-clock speed, and unpause and you can watch your grand vision bring the war to a close on your terms, or bring your country to ruin.

It would be hard to find a gamer in the world that isn’t at least aware of Blizzard’s Starcraft 2. The game extends a nearly decade and a half’s long campaign of real-time space war with an RTS system that serves as a cross between the resource acquisition of traditional 4x turn-based strategy games such as the Civilization series and the RTS battlefield play of the Total War series.

Starcraft 2 gives you control over one of three races, each with its own strengths and weaknesses, to craft a mobile war machine from, almost literally, the ground up. Nearly every aspect of your fighting force, from securing resources to front-line battle commands, is under your control and while the battlefield is yours for the taking, it’s also everyone else’s.
While Blizzard controversially released each race’s story as its own game, as opposed to the original which had all three in one package, Wings of Liberty, Legacy of the Void and Heart of the Swarm can now all be bought and played separately. With a variety of playable races, Starcraft 2 can easily satisfy any urge to dominate your fellow man … or alien.

War games in the turn-based tactical strategy genre have been relatively dry as of late, but there are some definite gems if you keep your eyes open. The two below are some of the better known.

Let your plans be dark and impenetrable as night, and when you move, fall like a thunderbolt. – Sun Tzu, The Art of War

XCOM 2 follows the events of the first XCOM release of the new era, placing you in command of an XCOM team living on the run in a world controlled by the alien forces. The open-ended campaign mode lets you pick and choose what to do, and where and when to do it as you regain control of Earth.

The tactical combat system provides turn-by-turn control over 5 classes of warriors that you can tailor to your own strategy. The technology system of the previous game remains, in expanded form, giving you control over how you’ll exterminate your alien overlords. A greater cast of friends, foes, NPC’s, and increased diversity in weapons and gear complete the game’s customization options, giving you total control over your forces in both the campaign and multiplayer mode. With XCOM 2, you are humanity’s last stand, again, after the first last stand against alien invasion forces failed.

Easily one of the most highly regarded series’ on Mac, The Banner Saga takes you into a fantasy Viking world for an RPG epic story. A turn-based tactical battle system gives you control of 25 customizable characters, each of 2 different races and 7 different classes, in both the campaign story mode and multiplayer skirmish modes. The narrative is an important aspect of this series and each of your choices over the course of the game affects the rest of your experience in an open-ended story-mode that requires strategic decisions on the battlefield but also outside.

The 2-D graphics call to mind the old-school style of Dragon’s Lair with beautifully animated battlefields and story animations. The campaign mode is currently 2 games deep, with a third episode in development, and since decisions made in the first game carry over to the second, I recommend you start with part one and play through the second.

No look at the top war games would be complete without a look at the First Person Shooters (FPS) that put you right onto the front lines in the muck and the mire of warfare. The three discussed here are just a sample of the FPS war games available for Mac gamers.

I’m better when it’s breathing. – Chris, American Sniper

In truth, it’s hard to find anything to say about the Call of Duty series. After all, who isn’t familiar with Call of Duty’s trademark fast gameplay and shoot everything that moves style. But of all the versions available for Mac gamers, Modern Warfare 3 is the one Mac Gamer HQ head honcho Ric recommends. MW3 is on Steam, features cross-platform multiplayer, a spec ops co-op mode and survival modes. Call of Duty games all have fun campaigns with production values worthy of a Michael Bay film. Yet Multiplayer is where they all shine and MW 3’s cross-platform multiplayer makes it the best Mac alternative.

The entire MW series (CoD4MW+MW2+MW3) is also available on Steam in one bundle that puts all of Modern Warfare in your hands, along with DLC, for a reasonably tidy sum. There’s really not a lot to say about it. It’s Call of Duty, but on Mac hardware. Just aim, run, and shoot people in the face.

Arma 3 puts you in control of a variety of battlefield soldiers and mechanical vehicles of destruction. The single-player story mode puts you in the boots of Ben Kerry for a 3 episode campaign. Single player training and scenarios help you beef up your battle-chops before you enter the sandbox multiplayer mode featuring both official and unofficial community-made maps and scenarios. Unique to the Arma 3 multiplayer mode is the Zeus mode, which gives players god-like influence over other players and the contingencies of the battlefield. A content editor also gives you the chance to design your own maps and scenarios for both the community and yourself. The Mac version of the game is currently in

The Mac version of the game is currently in experimental beta mode so you might want to hold off on buying the game until it receives official support. Then again, if you really can’t wait, you can buy the Windows version and then hype your friends on the Mac beta to help the process along.

A personal favorite of Ric’s and mine, this 3rd-person shooter from Yager Development studios takes you into the darker psychological recesses of war. Taking control of Special Operations Force’s Captain Martin Walker, you lead his three-person team through a single-player campaign in post-apocalyptic Dubai in search of mysterious Colonel John Konrad. I won’t spoil the story for you, but let me just say that it’s different and unique. Call of Duty and Battlefield should both take notice.

The gameplay is good too, featuring some exploration but mostly taking cover and shooting (similar to Gears of Wars games). You’ll find yourself short of ammo, time, and patience often enough that you might end up needing a new controller in this game that, for myself, calls to mind the 1999 film Fight Club, but instead of not being about war, it’s about war. Post-script spoiler alert.

This final entry comes from 11-bit studios and is easily one of the most intriguingly heartfelt approaches to the war genre in gaming history.

Our nation exists because of the people! We exist because of them. – Cidolfas Orlandu, Final Fantasy Tactics

Another personal favorite of Ric’s and mine, this scavenger-hunt game is about choices when choices are too few. Putting you in control of three civilians trapped in a building in a war-torn town, your goal is to keep these people alive amidst sniper fire that keeps you inside during the day, and among thieves and other civilians just trying to survive at night.

Only the dead have seen the end of war – attribution questionable

Resource management, scavenging missions, and housekeeping are central to the survival of your group. Decisions on how your players behave toward remaining survivors affect the morale and health of your characters in the randomly generated world brought to life in a beautifully animated tale of survival and loss in a devastated world.

Best War Video Games

This is far from an all-encompassing list, but any of these games should provide hours of good times. MacOS war games come in all shades, styles, and sizes and there’s no end in sight to the destruction you’ll reap upon your adversaries. That being said, keep count of your ammo, your eyes on your scopes, and your wits about you and don’t forget to be at least reasonably respectful to your fellow gamers. As Einstein was fond of saying: Say what you want about me and how I play the game, you’ve at least gotta admit that I’m the guy with the rocket launcher.

I know not with what weapons World War III will be fought, but World War IV will be fought with sticks and stones. – Albert Einstein
