It's a fight to the finish in your armoured tank - fight the computer or a friend! As the mist clears on a new day, you, as tank commander, survey the terrain around you. Forests, mountains, remote chalets, a large lake and the enemy. Using your skill as a tank captain you must manoeuvre your tank through the terrain shooting trees and houses as you go. At the same time, the enemy tanks (controlled either by the computer or an adversary) will be in sight. You cannot travel across mountains or the lake, though you can shoot across the lake. You must now formulate your strategy: Do you clear an area to make engagement easier (and earn more points) by blasting the trees and chalets, or do you proceed directly to try and engage the enemy? Proceed, commander...
