  • Easy to learn with short and straightforward scenarios, making it accessible for new players.
  • Offers a variety of campaigns and missions, allowing players to engage in different historical scenarios.
  • Fun and enjoyable gameplay with a good balance of tactical strategy and unit composition.
  • Scenario balance can be inconsistent, often requiring players to lower the difficulty for a fair chance.
  • Lacks historical accuracy and depth, with many missions feeling more like puzzles than true wargames.
  • Graphics and user interface are outdated, detracting from the overall experience.
  • story
    18 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The story aspect of the game features a diverse array of missions and armies, though they lack historical accuracy and primarily focus on providing a thematic feel. Players engage in defensive missions, such as protecting a crossroads, which are designed to be challenging but can lead to frustration due to the requirement to replay failed missions instead of progressing in the campaign. Overall, while the mission design is praised, the narrative depth remains relatively superficial.

    • “One mission requires the Polish army to defend a crossroads until German reinforcements make the position hopeless.”
    • “The more I play tank battle games, the more I admire their craft at mission design.”
    • “None of the missions really simulate historical situations, but they do give a feel for them.”
    • “Another thing that I didn't care for was the fact that if you lose a mission, you have to replay it, rather than moving on in the campaign.”
    • “For instance, I finished the Polish missions which are all defensive in nature.”

    The gameplay of Tank Battle is likened to a budget version of Panzer Corp, featuring simplified mechanics and a lack of depth, with small maps and easy levels that detract from the overall experience. While the game can be enjoyable once the mechanics are understood, the tutorial is plain and does not adequately explain the gameplay elements. Overall, it offers a fun experience but falls short in complexity and challenge.

    • “The graphics are adequate, and once you understand the mechanics you don't really need the help screens except to check up on the units.”
    • “It could be brilliant, and the gameplay is actually quite fun, but the maps are so ridiculously small, the levels so stupidly easy, and there's absolutely no depth to it.”
    • “They are very similar to this game in gameplay.”
    • “After playing through 1 of the 9 campaigns and the tutorial, I can safely say that Tank Battle is very much like a budget version of Panzer Corp / Panzer General, with simplified mechanics.”
    • “The attack mechanics are simplified, and there are no replacement and resupply.”
    • “The tutorial is there, but it's a bit plain, and mechanics are not explained well.”

    • “Graphics are blocky enough to be from the 90's.”
