Warfare Online: A Real-Time Strategy Game That Rewards Planning and Strategy
Released in 2017, Warfare Online is a fast-paced, tug-of-war PVP game that combines real time strategy with a collectible card game. Players face off against each other from around the globe in head-to-head battles or can sharpen their skills against an AI in Practice mode. Collect and customize infantry, vehicles, and support assets to push forward and destroy your opponent’s outpost and seize victory.
Gameplay
Warfare Online is played on a 2D battlefield, with each player controlling a base at opposite ends of the map. The goal of the game is to destroy your opponent’s base, which can be done by capturing and holding their territory, or by destroying their units.
Players take turns playing cards, which represent different units, abilities, and upgrades. Units can be deployed anywhere on the battlefield, and will automatically attack any enemy units that come within their range. Abilities can be used to buff your own units, debuff enemy units, or create environmental effects. Upgrades can be used to improve the stats of your units or to unlock new abilities.
The game is played in real time, so players must be quick to react to their opponent’s moves. However, the game also rewards planning and strategy. Players who take the time to think about their moves and build a well-rounded army will have a significant advantage over those who simply rush into battle.
Units
There are over 100 different units available in Warfare Online, each with its own unique stats and abilities. Units are divided into three main categories: infantry, vehicles, and support.
- Infantry units are the backbone of any army. They are relatively weak, but they are also cheap and can be deployed quickly. Infantry units are effective against other infantry units, but they are vulnerable to vehicles and support units.
- Vehicles are more powerful than infantry units, but they are also more expensive and take longer to deploy. Vehicles are effective against both infantry and other vehicles, but they are vulnerable to support units.
- Support units provide a variety of buffs and debuffs to your own units or to enemy units. Support units can be used to turn the tide of battle in your favor, but they are relatively weak and can be easily destroyed.
Cards
There are over 200 different cards available in Warfare Online, each with its own unique effect. Cards are divided into three main categories: units, abilities, and upgrades.
- Unit cards allow you to deploy new units onto the battlefield.
- Ability cards allow you to use special abilities, such as buffs, debuffs, or environmental effects.
- Upgrade cards allow you to improve the stats of your units or to unlock new abilities.
Strategy
The key to success in Warfare Online is to build a well-rounded army that can adapt to any situation. You will need to have a mix of infantry, vehicles, and support units in order to be successful. You will also need to be able to react quickly to your opponent’s moves and to make strategic decisions on the fly.
Here are a few tips for playing Warfare Online:
- Start by building a strong economy. This will allow you to purchase more units and cards, and to upgrade your units more quickly.
- Don’t be afraid to experiment with different unit combinations. There is no one-size-fits-all army in Warfare Online. The best army for you will depend on your playstyle and on the strategies of your opponents.
- Be aware of your opponent’s strengths and weaknesses. This will help you to make informed decisions about which units to deploy and which cards to play.
- Don’t be afraid to ask for help. There are many online communities where you can find tips and advice from other players.
Conclusion
Warfare Online is a fast-paced, tug-of-war PVP game that combines real time strategy with a collectible card game. The game is easy to learn, but difficult to master. Players who take the time to think about their moves and build a well-rounded army will have a significant advantage over those who simply rush into battle.
