Tidemark

Classic turn-based strategy. One map, a few armies, one turn each. Build units, capture cities, take the factories, and push the front line square by square to the enemy headquarters.

The rules are easy to learn: units counter each other, terrain decides attack and defence, and money comes from the cities you hold. The hard part is the choice you make every turn: capture or build, hold the bridge or go around, use your commander's power now or save it.

Features

• Land, sea and air on one map: infantry capture, tanks advance, artillery fires over mountains, fighters take the sky, warships close the sea lanes, and transports land troops where nobody expects them.
• Four nations, four ways to play: each has its own commanders and technology. A commander with a full meter can use a power that turns a battle in one turn.
• A campaign in six acts: one full story, mission after mission, with cutscenes.
• 20 skirmish maps for 2 to 4 sides. Each side is a player or the computer, and sides can form alliances.
• Fog of war: switch it on and you see only what your units see. Scouting and ambushes start to matter.
• Research: put part of your income into technology and your late-game army outclasses the enemy's.
• Codex: look up every unit, terrain and commander at any time, with who counters whom.
