July 2025
Some levels in late game play out more, like puzzle, than a strategy game, especially at first few turns, when i.e. you must place your air defense unit in one exact hex, to prevent enemy helicopter rush at first turn. But overall it is a good strategy game with really solid AI, that will not blindly run into your defenses. You will need to move carefully, as rushing blind is heavily punished, but if you have some experience in turn based games, this one is not that hard. Graphics and UI are clear and easy to read (not a common thing, these days), and good looking too. There are only few types of missions, but together with different enemy force composition and map setups it creates enough variability to keep it interesting for most of the playthrough, although few last missions were a drag. Overall, the systems of the game are very ellegant and well thought out,

The presentation, art, aesthetics = WOO. The tutorial was tedious and makes me not want to play the game again. You dully click through a set of instructions and the dummy enemies don't shoot back. Clearly the tutorial could have involved fun "real" mission action, but it doesn't. It was also tedious to move foot-soldiers through a forest one move at a time... Just give us a transport helicopter, there! The gameplay on the surface feels like Advance Wars on GBA in the movement and attacking, but a different style. I wish it had gamepad support so I didn't have to hold my arm up for my mouse. I give a RECOMMEND because it's OK and the developers know what they're doing which is not the case in most games. I encourage the effort, which I do not do after playing most games.

A turn based tactics game that promotes generally defensive, careful, and patient play. There are only a few units that can move and shoot in one turn, however their attack is reduced for doing so, and some of the more powerful weapons take a turn to prep meaning that just rushing forward is rarely the best option. Tanks are your most useful tools but the prevalence of anti-tank weaponry, means advances taken without care are routinely punished. Infantry are hardy but slow moving and can take heavy damage if outside of cover. Helicopters provide the ability to quickly flank and assault the enemy but are expensive and die rapidly if ambushed by anti air units. The resulting piece is an interesting variant of a tactical game where each movement into enemy territory needs to be carefully planned to give yourself the best odds of taking out the major threats, and maps can turn in a moment if you leave a key weapon over exposed. Deployment adds another wrinkle to this puzzle as you get your choice of which units to take into each map. Both you and the enemy have a schedule of further deployment points, which can differ. Sometimes leaving your initial smaller force to hold out until backup arrives, or providing you with an early advantage you need to make most use of before the enemy armour turns up. Often you may need to play a level multiple times to understand the puzzle presented by the enemy units, terrain, and deployment schedule. Its not for everyone, but the past balance patch seems to have fixed the most frustrating missions. I found it a highly engaging, difficult, and slow game.

Its been YEARS since i found a strategy game that held true to the idea of "strategy" this game will by far tickle that itch in your brain for puzzling situations. This game in the "normal mode" and "casual mode" will require THINKING yes i said the word THINKING. you can't just mindlessly send out units "HOPING" it will win the match you have to THINK and this is one of the many reasons i love this game. i have spent the last THREE days playing this constantly and i enjoy every bit of this game, from the main campaign to the multiplayer that you can also SKIRMISH against bots. something i haven't seen since the command and conquer days. this game deserves more hype to the old school strategy game players. without spoiling this game it takes time to read and understand your units and how they can counter the enemies units. a rock paper scissor format. ;) this game is worth all of its money if you like a challenging game that makes you think on your toes and holds you to the critical details that you do not pay attention to. out of strategy games i give this a 10/10 would recommend to my old school RTS players. yes it is turn based but still fun as ever!

This is an enjoyable take on a turn based wargame. A little different in that it has puzzle like elements to the gameplay as such You'll be replaying battles often, before you beat them. This doesn't become tedious though (at least not to me) The difficulty settings are a nice touch as well.
