I've already backed it myself but I really hope does well and surpasses it's goal.
The classic turn-based strategy – exciting, involved gaming that calls for long-term planning, clever tactics, transparent rules and tough decisions – is making a comeback. Many gamers may have seen and enjoyed recent examples of great turn-based gaming, but might not be aware of classics like Battle Isle or Advance Wars. Have you ever wondered what games of that calibre would look like today?Well, we did. And as a result, we decided to bring back this great genre with its unique gameplay experience. For ourselves, for you and for all other gamers out there interested in turn-based strategy.

- No DLC scheme, no micro-transactions.
- No DRM. No “always-on” necessity. Pinkie swear.

What’s In The Game? Here are some of the key features that will be in the game: Single Player Campaigns
- Fight for the "Yerla" faction, a highly technologized army. For the Rebels, make do with what you’ve got and fight a guerilla war. Toge thern both campaigns will allow for more than 30 hours of gameplay. Single Player Challenge Maps - Test your skills inndifferent combat scenarios and keep track of your progress.Live Multiplayer - Battle your friends live on theninterent or via hot-seat.Asynchronous Multiplayer -Take all the time you need and consider your moves . Similar to “play-by-mail”, your round is stored on our server and turned over to your opponent. The system allows you to continue the match anytime and anywhere you want.Strong AI - A clever AI that considers gameplay on various tactical and strategic levels as well as individual enemy characteristics will challenge even experienced commanders. Map Editor - A powerful editor to create yournown maps and missions.
There will be around 40 different units and buildings in the game, many of which can be upgraded to obtain new capabilities. What Are The Core Gameplay Mechanics? Staying true to turn-based strategy, Battle Worlds: Kronos is all about using your units and resources to the greatest possible effect. In order to win, you will need to consider factors like the positioning of units, attack range, armament and equipped upgrades.Victory or defeat - your tactics will decide.We are using in-game cutscenes to tell the story of the campaings.
All units in the game have a unique character, setting them apart from all other units and giving them well-defined strengths and weaknesses. You can further individualize them by assigning specific upgrades. Most units allow for two leveled upgrades, each with two options to choose from. The campaign sometimes allows you to take some of your victorious units with you and improve them over the course of several missions.Upgrade units according to your personal needs and style of play!
Multiplayer, Community & TournamentsMultiplayer: While you will be able to battle your friends (and foes) in realtime, just like you are used to in other games, it's the asynchronous multiplayer mode that really gets us going. Playing Battle Worlds: Kronos across platforms and in asynchronous mode means that the game is with you anywhere, anytime. You can spend days and weeks fighting epic battles against opponents all over the world. Play a turn, transfer it to the server and let your enemy make his move. Take your time while taking turns and fighting for victory! For us, this is the coolest aspect of the game.
Community: We will gather a community of turn-based strategists around the game, supporting it with a forum, a match-making system and a game ladder system. Additionally, we will provide a game editor, which will enable the community to create their own maps for single or multiplayer battles. Tournaments: As a recurring highlight for the community we are planning tournaments of different sizes, where players can compete beyond the game ladder.
