Ratings and reviews

I normally wait for games to go on sale, but I also periodically hunt around for promising tactical/turn-based games because it's one of my favorite genres, especially for mobile, and this game is easily one of the best on GP. It's clearly inspired by games like Advance Wars, but it stands alongside that series with equal quality. it's nice to look at, it has all the features you would expect from this kind of game and it has great writing and a very slick UI. It was totally worth the purchase.

The general gameplay is good, just like common turn-based-battle games with city capture and unit production. However, I'm disappointed that movement and attack range are calculated rigidly on straight horizontal and vertical (diagonal is counted as greater than 1 unit length). It messes up the initial plans. Sure I'll get used to it, but the overall maneuvers will always be unpleasant to see, e.g. adjacent 1-range units won't be able to attack if they're diagonal to each other.

Pretty good game but some gameplay mechanics are annoying. For example, game doesn't your progress after your last move. Also, you can't deploy any unit or use your hq's special bonuses if there's any unit occupying the buildings
