If you dont want to fight in candyland pick ruins.-Flagg-
LOL
Well Dual strike difference is the campaign is a easier and you fight it in "candyland" Good for people new to the franchise. Days of Ruin has a more Gritty artstyle and has a harder campaign. It also has online play and fileshare for maps you make.
The units in both games are the same with DOR adding some new ones. Game play is same, the CO powers of DS game happens more & covers more area. So, I would say the CO powers affect the game more in DS. There is more battles in DS when you count all the individual ones available. The campaign in DOR is harder to get through. Since you don't have either, I would suggest buying DS, then later on as funds are available buying DOR.
Dual Strike is also the cheaper option. You'll get a better feel for the game, and if you don't like it it wont hurt you pocket too much. If you do like it, then you'll know the other game will offer the greater challenge for you afterwards.
I think that days of ruin takes the cake being that the storyline is so different than the cartoony style of dual strike plus its harder and what really makes a strategy game? Diffuculty
I only own Dual Strike. Sounds like I made a good call. I had enough problems getting through DS's campaign. It is way more cheery and colorful, but that doesn't mean it's lacking in challenge or fun.
they are both very good so u wont be disapointed with your choice. for now get whatevers cheaper and get the other when ur done with it. at gamecrazy dual strike is $15, but at gamestop its 25 or 30.
