Gameplay
Wartile is a single player and multiplayer real time tabletop RTS inspired game. All with a strong turn based flavor to it. The game replicates the feeling of playing the tabletop RTS gamesd but with faster, more immediate combat. Each Battle Board is an intricately realised digital diorama. Complete with tiles that allow players to strategize their tactical moves and attack in real time.
The games units are fully customizable with armor, weapons and new stat tokens. Hence the players can pick these up throughout the tabletop RTS game by completing special challenges. Stat tokens provide points that players can add to their characters stats which unlock when players level up. Stat tokens can be available in each of the various Battle Boards in the game. Players can add a tactical edge to their combat by utilizing Ability cards and Godly cards. While their figurine gains more experience by completing special battle board objectives. Godly cards and abilities can be put together by the player before engaging in battle. While also being available during combat, these cards can easily change the course of the fight should the odds stack against their favour.
A wide range of detailed environments is in the works for the game. Including Norwegian mountains, murky swamps, rocky English coastlines, dark dungeons and sweeping grasslands. Wartile also allows players to unlock and collect an array of different characters. All with different combat abilities to provide a choice of tactical options before they embark on each quest.
