About This Game

Design tanks in a dedicated and intuitive designer, allowing the realistic armour mechanics that make tank combat so unique. Explore tank design's challenges through WW1, the interwar period and the early, mid and late stages of WW2.

Please note: There is currently no dedicated tutorial. If you don't enjoy figuring things out or you don't know much about tanks, it may be worth holding off until better guidance is in place.

Hull & Turret Shape Design

Easy to use and flexible enough to give you endless design starting points. Drag on a face or edge to move it. Bigger compartments create more internal space but have more surface to armour.

Well angled shapes may bounce incoming shells off entirely, leaving only a scratch and several ringing ears.

Armour Design

Set the thickness of each armour plate, allowing you to block shots from your foes. Though the weight and space used adds up!

Cannon Design

Build a gun capable of piercing enemy armour. You'll need enough space and force to rotate it. Make sure you save enough room for ammo!

Crew Design

Humans are light but large and quite essential, squeeze them in and assign them one or more roles. Cramped and overworked crew perform poorly.

Attached Parts

Add functional and decorative parts to the exterior of your vehicle. These can define where internals are e.g. the engine is positioned where you place your exhausts and vents, then gets hit if a shell pierces your armour in that area. Place a fuel port in front of the driver and the fuel tank just might absorb a projectile, saving their life - if it doesn't ignite...

Track Design

Focus your tracks and suspension on trench crossing, mountain climbing, going fast or just looking cool.

Engine Design

Design anything from ship engines to lawnmower engines in a basic powerplant designer.

Fuel Tank Design

Set your fuel capacity and tank locations. Even bring them outside of the vehicle - if you don't mind them being shot off every now and then.

Transmission Design

Design your ratios - make it faster backwards than forwards or give it a 1st gear that can climb any mountain. One of these on each track will let one side drive while the other reverses, turning on the spot.

Internal Component Health

No hit-points. Vehicles carry on the fight as long as their critical internals are still functioning.

Full Powertrain Simulation

Engines, transmissions & tracks work together to move your tank with a realistic simulation, making vehicles feel like the real thing.

Scenarios

Battle in a range of environments with a team of your custom tanks, although make your design too expensive and you might be on your own. If your vehicle is destroyed, you carry on the fight in control of an ally - sometimes watching your previous self go up in flames.

Great game. Pretty fun, just needs workshop support and it'd be perfect.

Not recommending at present due to concerns about the games long term viability. As the EA note says the timeline is no longer up to date. The game is at minimum 2 years behind schedule. It is a solo dev who has promised to hire on help but has not done so yet even though they have received the money from sales of the game. Most recent updates have been trivial or restoring lost features. The main game and the current Beta are so far apart as too be separate games. You must opt into the beta to get the latest version of the game. Looking at road map the next stage is polishing where they think the game is in a minimum finished state. Only after this polishing feature will they add on essential features such as workshop support, campaigns or missions, tutorials, achievements, multiplayer, and more design options. The game is clearly a labor of love and won't be abandoned but I don't have confidence the developer can deliver what they say they will in a timely manner or at all. Multipl...

Very nice game, especially for just one developer. The graphics are very good, the tank building is fun, and the experimental branch has much more to offer. I just wish it was easier to put ridiculous values in the guns and armor.

Fun and creative and in a few years when they add multiplayer its gonna be a blast though I wish there was more modern options in era for building cold war and modern for example.

this game absolutely sucks, waste of $20. You cant even build a good tank without going 1 km/h and why not just let us add points to the hull and turret

So many bugs and the interface is hard as hell to do anything useful.
