I suspect that over the course of Kingdom Under Fire 2's 50 story missions I'll continue to be impressed by large and varied troop types that liven up the battlefield, and how well it pulls off this blending of genres. I've always found the overhead view of RTS games to be too detached to feel like a high-stakes Lord of the Rings style clash, but Kingdom Under Fire 2 comes extremely close, with flying beasts and giant scorpions thrown in for good measure. Even alone, Kingdom Under Fire 2 gives me that feeling of epic scale that any RPG player has wished for in a fantasy setting. In the live game, you can bring up to three other players along with their own units in these instanced RTS missions. I've taken on this mission alone, defending against a group of long-limbed and fin-backed creatures (akin to the Alien Xenomorph) called Encablossians.

"It may not sound like a big deal but that played a very significant role," Kim says through business development manager David Wang, who translated. Kingdom Under Fire 2's creative director Jubo Kim explained just how vital it was to make that transition feel perfect during a Q&A session. Despite the action combat happening on the ground, transitioning from action to RTS is quick enough that I can afford to keep an eye on both views. It's a quick zoom from high to low that keeps the urgency of an ongoing fight, which is where Kingdom Under Fire 2 really succeeds.
I click on my infantry to ensure that they'll continue attacking the house-sized scorpion and then press Tab again to bring me back down to ground level over my character's shoulder. Kingdom Under Fire 2 restricts me to only three troops per encounter so that players can manage both the RTS and action simultaneously. I press Tab to pull the game's camera back to the tactical RTS mode, which shows the location of all my troop groups.
