Armoured Clash and Dystopian Wars

Some glorious Crown vehicles, with a naval vessel and rotorcraft from Armoured Clash's sister game, Dystopian Wars, in the background:

 

Buckle up your jackboots and strap on your pickelhaubes... the German-inspired Imperium are the next faction to emerge into Armoured Clash!

 

Personally I'll be going for Crown and Enlightened to recreate the War of the Worlds, but this has been a highly anticipated and popular release.

 

Yep, Imperium get a big stompy robot (something they had a history of fielding in the earlier incarnation of Armoured Clash run by Spartan). In-game it'll be another Behemoth unit like the Crown's Sovereign Landship, which cost masses of points and have a lot of restrictions against them to stop people just filling their army out with them (the Sovereign, for instance, costing almost 500 points on its own and only being allowed in games of 2000 points +).

That's another thing I love about this game, Warcradle are really taking things seriously in keeping the game balanced and stopping players from spamming units.

 

True, but it is a keenly-enforced and unbreakable rule in the game that each unit can only be taken once per Battlegroup (i.e. formation of troops) except for Mainstay units (i.e. core units you'd see a lot of), and even those can only be taken twice, to fully enforce armies to take a good mix of different units... so I think the game will largely remain immune to spamming so long as it keeps these rules in place

 

Crown troops on their way to combat a Martian invasion...

 

A lone Crown Defiance fighter soars over the craggy mountains of North Wales, on patrol and keeping the skies secure.

 

For those who like pickelhaubes and feldgrau...

 

The Crown sallies forth!

 

In recent Armoured Clash news, we've had the Commonwealth (Tsarist Russia, Poland and other Eastern European states) turn up, bringing more freezing cold air than a Thundertusk, drills that wouldn't look out of place in Thunderbirds and amped-up Berserkers with them...

 

And at the end of this month we'll be seeing the Latin Alliance (French, Spaniards, Italians, Portuguese) previewed for the first time.
