 ===== Information =====
-Forged Alliance is a stand-alone addon for [[Supreme Commander]]. The game mechanics follows the [[Total Annihilation Mechanics]]. Basically it is an independent game, but continues the story line of Supreme Commander: Black Sun has been activated. This activation also made it possible for the Seraphim, who had long been considered extinct, to open a quantum fissure through which they completely bombed Earth in a devastating first strike. Out of necessity, the three factions of the predecessor, Aeon, Cybran and UEF, work together in a joint alliance against the Seraphim.
+Forged Alliance is a stand-alone addon for [[Supreme Commander]], developed by [[Gas Powered Games]] and released by [[Square Enix]] on 29.9.2011.

 For the multiplayer this means on the one hand another faction that you can play. On the other hand there are a few new units. FA is therefore to be preferred for the multiplayer.

 As written above, the AI needs some time to get to the point, where it throws strategic missiles at you. In one match this was as early as 46 Minutes (game time).
 ===== Network =====
-The game can be played in several ways over the network. The Steam version has an extra Internet multiplayer lobby that replaces the GPGNet lobby. (GPGNet is offline now.) Via the LAN you can connect with direct IP //and// port input. The game allows you to either choose the port randomly when opening a server, or to set it yourself. What doesn't work is player with the steam version and DVD version in one game. Both sides can't see each other or connect to each other. The game doesn't give an error message, but the connection just doesn't work. Similarly, a connection via the Internet (without [[VPN]]) does not work, despite port forwarding.

 For a network game, FA requires the specified port and 15000 (UDP) to be allowed in a possible firewall.
