Your staging area is enormous, so you can spread your forces thin to avoid enemy bombardment, or pack them in tight to speedily overwhelm your opponent. While there are indeed many tanks to totally simulate, you also have access to infantry, fighter planes and bombers, stationary guns, trucks and even minefields. An overview of the terrain beforehand reveals enemy positions and points of interest. You’ll start each battle with a budget, which determines how many of each unit you can afford. Battles take place across large maps, with you on one side of a huge two-square grid and your enemy on the other.
The most important decisions are which units to field and where to field them. A casual observer might mistake it for a highly tactical affair, when it’s really not all that intricate at all.
Which is probably why I find Total Tank Simulator so much fun. I tend to take a “hit and hope” approach to most things in life, advanced battle manouvers notwithstanding. Despite a love of tactics games and brain teasers, I am no strategic genius.
