[h2]Every War Has Its Generals [/h2]

Total Tank Generals needs you! Take command of an army during WW2 and lead them to victory. Strategize your way through many scenarios and real historical military campaigns of past generals - such as Patton, Zhukov, and Rommel.

Turn-based strategy is the name of the game here, as you’re dropped into real historical military campaigns of past generals and see how you fair.


[h2]Every Decision Matters [/h2]

Deciding how to take on the latest campaign can be challenging and choosing suitable units for battles can be tricky. There are dozens of unit options to choose from, some that complement each other when carefully positioned and manoeuvred across the battlefield. Some are lone wolves that are built to dominate.

You are the general and it your choice when and who to recruit and promote. When to expand your army and when to resupply on all out assaults. If all else fails, the air support can be called in to help the troops on the ground to turn the tide of battle in your favour.


[h2]Every Unit Matters [/h2]

Total Tank Generals features an innovative way of stacking units. Allowing you to mix each tile to your favour. Adding an additional tactical way that could give you the advantage.

Every army has its own selection of units - each with its own strengths and weaknesses - that reflect their historical counterparts


[h2]Every Detail Matters [/h2]

Immersing yourself in the history of the largest military conflict to date and follow in the footsteps of some of the greatest military leaders across their campaigns that made them.

Total Tank Generals will offer a strong historical approach from casual gamers to long-time strategy fans and WW2 enthusiasts. All of this is delivered in an entertaining and comprehensive package depicting historical events in a realistic documentary-like manner.


[h2]Every Idea Matters [/h2]

Total Tank Generals will also offer extensive modding support and map-making with Steam Workshop. Allowing construction and creation of campaigns to challenge you and your friends.

Mod support will allow for easy tweaks to stats and mechanics, adding new units or even changing visuals to create whole new universes to explore.
