Tank Fighters

Tank Fighters Publisher's Description:
TankFighters is a fast paced, 3D tank game that promises quick action and rewarding game play.

TankFighters is a ton of fun alone or for a different kind of challenge, play online with up to 8 people.

TankFighters takes place in a smallish world with up to 8 tanks battling for glory. Because of the small size of the world, action begins briskly and never slows down. Each world has buildings and hills providing hiding space and defensive ground.

TankFighters is not a complex game. You'll be fighting and winning in no time. Begin in the "Target Practice" mode where nothing shoots at you. Then progress to a 4vs4 game, where you can let your team mates lead the fight. As your confidence and skill increase, you can play games with fewer and fewer team mates, and more enemy tanks.

The enemy tanks have a variety of strategies they employ. Sometimes they are aggressive and bold, other times meek and submissive. There personality may even change during a game.

You'll want to try different strategies, choose from: follow the leader, hide and seek, run and gun, wait and see, or invent your own. Each game is fairly short so you can quickly try different strategies and techniques.

The turret in TankFighters can move independently from the tank. This is a huge benefit. In many tank games, you can only shoot in the direction the tank is facing. This means that when two tanks shoot at each other, most likely, they hit each other with every shot. That makes for kind of a quick end. But with TankFighters you can drive in one direction and fire in another. This, while slightly confusing at first, is a huge advantage once mastered. And the shells move at a pace where a skillful player can avoid all but the best aimed shots.

Since the turret can be facing a different direction from the tank, 2 windows are needed for aiming and driving. And that is exactly what TankFighters provides. A larger, main window for the turret view, and a smaller window for driving. Plus, TankFighters includes a tactical radar screen, and a "chase" view. Four windows in all.
