War Wind II: Human Onslaught is a classic real-time strategy (RTS) game developed by DreamForge Intertainment and originally released for Windows in 1997. As the sequel to War Wind, this installment continues the sci-fi conflict on the alien world of Yavaun, where four distinct factions vie for supremacy, including two new human groups — the disciplined Marines and the scholarly Descendants — alongside the established alien alliances.
Players must gather resources, build bases, and command diverse units like vehicles, special troops, and mechanised forces across intense battlefields. With multiple campaigns and over 40+ scenarios, Human Onslaught offers strategic depth, dynamic combat, and a rich narrative that blends alien mysticism with human ambition. Later re-released on digital platforms like Steam and GOG, the game remains a noteworthy RTS for fans of classic strategy titles.
