Thread: "New" upcoming game: Armor Blitz

Dude the "whatstheirname " was there for a reason.
You think I care what the faceless nameless npcs that come running to my side of the battlefield are called ?
Hell no

Theres the rocket assholes who are toughest, the cannon gribblies who are semi tough but have penetration on their attack, and then the slow moving shambler zombies. And of course the same tanks as ours but with washed out colors so they look evil

I usually pick up the names of things after I see one of them slap the health off one of my tanks, or when they individually manage to stonewall my murder-ball for several seconds. Wraiths are kinda mini-boss-ish. I like the idea of having a beefy mid-boss sort of tank but the game's format isn't great for that. You'd have to break things into mission stages like Ye olde Raptor instead of throwing enemies at you randomly until you get a Wraith behind a Maus or something and that's your ass.

But yeah, this event's still pretty doable. The artillery spam just means you have to dump rushers on the boss early on.

I dont know man, I kinda stopped caring about the story in these games. Especially with games like this where they cant even finish the main god damn map. We still need that Abyssinia mission and the Crater itself, which is like 3-4 more tiles, for a complete story, but they just cant seem to get it done.
...Plus the fact that the wast majority of tanks dont have even their own character mini stories, doesnt help much either.
