How It Works

The basic idea is that you are the Vanu Sovreignty, each turn you get to spawn a random new unit (click the Spawn) button) at a position you choose on the leftmost side of the battlefield. Your enemy, the New Conglomerate will spawn a unit on the right side. Every turn, all your units that are still alive move to the right and the NC's move to the left. You need to get enough of your units to the right hand side in order to win before the NC get enough of theirs to the left to beat you.

Before you hit Spawn you can hover your mouse over any unit on the battlefield to look at its stats.

Unit Stats

When you spawn a unit, or hover your mouse over one already in play, you'll see the units stats. This is basically a list of what things it can kill and at what range. Each round, unit will act on one of the possible groups of kills it can perform. The ones at the top of the stats display will be favored over those below. So, for instance, a Buggy will take a shot at one or two troops if any are near enough, even if there is a MAX in range too. If there are no troops nearby, it'll shoot the MAX.

There's one more element to some of the unit's stats - Spawning. Some units will randomly spawn up to the listed number of random troop units when they get destroyed. For instance, if your AMS unit is destroyed, up to 3 friendly troopers with random equipment will appear in the adjacent cells. Sunderers and Deliverers are the other units that can spawn troops when they are destroyed.

Levels

The game has ten levels. In each one you need to get more units across the battlefield alive and the enemy need to get less units past you. You should find the last level pretty tough.
