Recently downloaded this game to find something new to play & wasn’t let down after playing for awhile i upgraded pretty much everything & noticed if the game got a couple more updates & added features it would be even better & I’d definitely buy the unlimited version then if we had maybe different artillery shell options, with more damage & shrapnel options, maybe even plane bombing or naval ship shelling , different vehicles from your faction to choose from & send out whether it be land or air , & way more added officer updates. Lastly if the cost of everything upgrades wise could be tweaked as it does take quite awhile to grind & upgrade everything other than that im definitely a fan of this game & will continue to wait for updates & new features !!!!!😊
About premium squads..
AverageGunsUpPlayer
In general, the game is great. A couple complaints, like retreating, ai stupidity, such as not staying on the defensive and constantly attacking, but it’s a great game in general. Except for the premium squads. They’re cool(?) but the only one you’ll EVER need is the sharpshooter. Every other one is useless. Flamethrower has no range and will kill more of your own men than the enemies. Trench raider barely is able to be effective because they get shot before they’re able to do anything. And the sentry has the same issue as the flamethrower, and medic is situational at best. Buff the flamethrower’s range a lot, a make it a little larger than an entrenched rifleman, but have the downside of the flamethrower having less damage as it reaches. Trench raider needs a SMG according to nation, and sentry needs a lot of health. Medic is in general useless and should be made an officer upgrade. Sharpshooter should have limited ammo to handicap it’s incredible range, making the sharpshooter have to go into the trench and off map for a bit to get more ammo before coming back. Those are just my suggestions though, good game anyway.
Good game with issues

Let me start by saying this is a fun little time passer. For what it is, it’s neat. The only real issues I see are with the survival mode. Many of the power-ups are almost entirely useless. The “Better Rations” in particular is absolutely unnecessary, since by the time it comes to have any use, you’ve already been overwhelmed. Also, the “Unexpected Potential” power up has a 1/3 chance to give you a flamethrower unit. Their range is laughable, their damage is extremely underwhelming, and they do damage your other units when they explode upon death. The “Experimental Medicine” which revives your fallen soldiers does NOT apply to your machine gun nests. Once they’re gone, it’s over. Also, don’t even bother with artillery/mortars. You won’t hit the broad side of a barn, and if you do, the damage is rarely lethal. Strafing run is OK once you figure how to use it well, but the 50 second cooldown is harsh. I think the ability to re-roll power ups would cure many of these problems. Other than what’s listed, it’s a decent game. Just needs some tweaking.
Tedious attritional nonsense

This, like most iOS games these days, has the delightful mechanic of introducing you to the gameplay, showing you how it works, allowing you 10-20 minutes of enjoyment, then putting up barriers showing how impossible it is to advance meaningfully unless you start shelling out cash. The graphics are appealing and well done, the gameplay, though basic, is fun at first. There is no real strategy to speak of other than allocating purchasable stat points to units, and directing their movement on the battlefield, which seems to have little impact on how successful an attack is. Playing smart will only help you get ahead in a trivial sense. It’s easy to see how an “endless” campaign will turn into a slog of fighting stat padded units that are impossible to defeat unless you spend increasingly absurd amounts of money. I’m ok with paying $5-10, even $20 for a well crafted game. I’d rather buy and enjoy it then buy it, lose units that can only be saved with currency, grind through a few levels for little gain, and get upset at how little my actions have any impact on the results. That’s not “fun” to me.
- Improved soldier pathing when performing a melee attack
- Fixed a bug with the camera jumping around the battlefield
