From the preview: "I recently got a chance to check out the latest build of Gratuitous Tank Battles, the upcoming release from the good people at Positech Games. This tower defense/RTS hybrid is looking to be quite a time-killer, with tons of customization options and the ability to play each map as either the defender or attacker. "
This week, the Humble Sale has gone back to selling video games, with the titles up for grabs coming from strategy developer Positech Games.
Eskimo Press: "Gratuitous Tank Battles is a tower-defense/RTS hybrid thing set in a world where World War I never ended. Tanks are used alongside mechs and laser riflemen against missile batteries and laser cannons. Sounds cool, right?"
Today the expansion The Western Front for UK indie Gratuitous Tank Battles is available. It's an "alternate-history" tower-defense game involving plenty of tanks which just got a lot more WW2 themed.
The plot of Gratuitous Tank Battles is that the first World War kinda never ended, but got lasers! Now The Western Front pushes it into WW2 as Yanks face the Krauts in Europe through 8 missions.
