Electricity can be acquired by finding things like watches or flashlights. Plastic can be found in items like dog bowls and action figures, and you can even harvest some from dead units. There are two resources you'll need to construct an army: plastic and electricity.

Some of the things lying around can be used to harvest resources. The owner of the house that's the stage for the battles in Army Men: RTS must be quite messy-there are toys and garbage spilled all over the place. Your pursuit will place you on battlefields ranging from a backyard to kitchen countertops.

You'll control a variety of green plastic troops, such as this flamethrower.Īrmy Men: RTS places the Green army under your direct control in a series of campaign missions and single-scenario battles called the "great battles." The campaign has you chasing after a rogue Green general who joined your archenemy, the Tan army. Army Men: RTS maintains the broad appeal of the series, as its basic design makes it very easy for players to pick up and enjoy, though die-hard fans of the genre will find it frustrating at times. That's no doubt partly because it was created by Pandemic Studios, an experienced developer of real-time strategy games. The game originally debuted on the PlayStation 2, but Army Men: RTS feels right at home on the PC.

It was probably only a matter of time before an Army Men installment let you control an entire brigade of those little green plastic men in a real-time strategy game, which is exactly what Army Men: RTS does. The Army Men franchise has been very successful for 3DO over the years, yet few Army Men games since the original have made it to the PC.
