Strange bug where only enemy tanks spawn from cities despite capturing them, but its quite a fun game when it works. Would love to see this concept expanaded upon into a full game, because this game is just great.

@musicblox Thanks for the feedback! I think I know what the spawning issue is and can probably push a fix for it.

Interesting game. Quite liked the upgrade each turn mechanic, though it did screw me over whilst I was still figuring out how to play :sweat_smile: Overall though, quite nice. Perhaps just a little more into on how to play in game.

Awesome, love me some turn based action! Great little entry, nice job!

@brandon-js-lea Thanks for the feedback. I always end up forgetting to put an instruction screen / helpful tips into my game, will make that a priority next time lol.

@clemonades Thanks! Advance Wars is my favorite series so I love TBS too, and while I don't think my shitty game lives up to those masterpieces, I'm glad you enjoyed it!

Took me a while to figure it out but after I did, it was quite fun! Nice entry!

The core concept here is great, brought me back to how I first felt playing Into the Breach. Clarifying information a bit more and allowing the player to click off a unit before moving them would be nice (actually this might be possible, I didn't explore all my options), but I did a full playthrough and had a great time. Nice work!

Starting with no army was a pretty straightforward take on the theme, but the tanks themselves, also starting with nothing, was really cool! I like being aware of the opponents stats, too, adding more strategy if it was blown out to a full game, where you build your tanks to counter theirs.
