This is not an engine in itself, this is just a term that can be used as a name for the "2D" RTS games Westwood Studios developed. They never officially announced, named or released this engine.

Dune II, albeit not CNC canon, also greatly shares ancestral heritage with this engine
this engine is the best engine ever. i loved playing all older cnc games before EA took over.
yes oldskool but still cool
Actually it's a 3D engine. THose one who work with it, know that is't a simple 3D
*Actually is 2.5D lol sounds wired but it is!
