Thread: "New" upcoming game: Armor Blitz

The more regular approach of a tiered, tailored set spread across fixed level intervals with a set of rewards balanced to fit into the larger game would take way more time and resources that the small team behind AB has at least in the current situation where it, at least to me, looks like they are stuck in a marathon game of catching up.

I'd go as far as to claim that the invasion state also reflects that there is simply no option but to throw basic versions to the gamers, in order to provide content and also see what floats and tinker accordingly on it.

On the up side it means they really do try. On the down side it means that while the walls are those of a palace, you are going to be sleeping in a tent for a while, at least while the rest is being built.

I dont mind them "trying" nor giving us "simple" solutions. Actually its great, they are doing content updates, even if its small filler things like this.
My issue is with the oil cost scaling with your lvl, while the rewards are so meager, is anything, but incentive to make me wanna play these missions.
As I said, for me the cost is almost 300 per run. And thats not a small amount, for shitty 1 cand/Core/500 metal or whatever.

Cut the price in half and you wont hear me complaining. Considering its L40 map, and on occassions I loose some of my 4-5* tanks on those missions the difficulty is high enough to varant some sort of babysitting rather than setting the fight to Auto and not paying attention. If thats the case there is no reason for it to be that expensive to start with, since people will prefer grinding other maps, or progressing the story instead.

Edit: Guys I´ve noticed my Assistant in the Barracks sometimes saying stuff like "someone challanged us to a duel" and such. But I dont see any button for that, nor can I find such function anywhere in the game menus. Is this something to come in the future or am I missing something ?
