About This Game Gratuitous Tank Battles (GTB) is a unique hybrid of tower-defense, strategy, simulation and RTS. Set in an alternate history timeline where World War I never ends, you are the commander of allied forces fighting right up to the year 2114, where Mechs and lasers are used alongside tanks and rifles. The war continues across Europe, with the allied commanders still locked into the optimistic patriotism of the 1900s.A tower-defense game where you can play as the attacker has been done before, but GTB lets you play the same maps as attacker OR defender, and even lets you save out your attack as a recording to defend against. An online-challenge system lets you upload your custom maps and custom units and attacks for other players to fight against. Speaking of custom units, GTB doesn't have simple pre-built units, but allows you to build them from individual components, and even design the appearance and colors of every single unit. An unlocks system gradually reveals more modules, abilities and unit 'hulls' to experiment with.GTB also features an integrated map editor that lets you trivially change and tweak existing maps, or create entirely new ones, and the process of sharing these custom maps with friends is built right into the game. Combine it with Steam achievements, community, cloud support and more, and you should be kept busy fighting over Europe for another two hundred years./>Key Features Alternate History Tower Defense: Fight a 200 year war to save Europe Play as attacker or defender on any map, even custom ones Fight with Infantry, Tanks, Turrets and Mechs Optional Adaptive AI adjusts to your play style and tactics for endless variety Customizable units allow you to design your own personal army Built-in level editor makes creating a new map a breeze Save out your attack and play against it as the defender Online map and challenge-sharing system allows you to fight your friends armies 7aa9394dea Title: Gratuitous Tank BattlesGenre: Indie, Simulation, StrategyDeveloper:Positech GamesPublisher:Positech GamesRelease Date: 17 May, 2012 Gratuitous Tank Battles Patch It's truly nothing more than a tank tower defense with the 'Gratuitous -Vehicle- Battles'. Nothing like the Spaceship one I played as a kid. Don't pay cash for this, Honestly play like...I don't know. Bloons or something and you'll have more fun with it.. Holy crap this game sucks. Massive amounts of eye strain and the mechanics are overly complicated. The game needs a massive overhaul on usability and the interface. It's nowhere near as good as GSB was.. Currently plagued with odd steam problems now, but otherwise, still playable when you create a desktop shortcut instead. The unit customization is fun, the unlocks system still rewards you when you lose, and the combat is very frantic and fun when you have the right setup. Tis' a shame that I'm not a tower defense junkie, and I personally found it somewhat boring after a while. Not a bad game, but I hope they provide good support, additional game modes, and some DLC in the future.6\/10 because I'm a tsundere sex symbol.. Yeah I dunno, I liked space battles, but this one is whack. There was a certain mission I just couldn't get past no matter what outfit I tried. Maybe I'm just \u2665\u2665\u2665\u2665\u2665\u2665\u2665\u2665.In any case, it's a bit more involving than space battles, in the sense that you need to build turrets or send out waves of guys in real time.But somehow it's just not as satisfying. Maybe the ship porn of space battles really knocked it up to the 'playable' category.. I bought this game because I enjoyed Gratuitous Space Battles enormously. What a disappointment! This game appears to be a quick and dirty attempt to profit from GSB. You get a few maps to learn from and then nothing but the same map over and over and over, with suggestions that you should play on-line to get a better experience. Maybe I am missing something, but I can find none of the maps shown in the Steam advertisement available as single player mode in the game.
