I'm liking the look. Not expecting full real sim but looks fun. Has Infantry which is always a major plus!

It's been on my wish list for a while but it looks a way off yet (Q4 2022). As usual, I need to see some sort of gameplay before I get my hopes up.

I am not sure it will be the tank sim we all hope it will be. The latest gameplay video looks rather arcadish. The devs said it will be a mix of arcade and sim elements.

I had high hopes for this... but it looks like I might give it a miss.

Unfortunately no playable demo in June.

The steppe screenshots look quite good.

The demo is now available on Steam.

So far I am not too impressed. Currently the gameplay is too arcadish for my taste. The game could have potential, but it clearly needs much more work.

The choice of title suggests a bit of a turd to be honest.

What the hell is a tank squad supposed to be? A single tank - on the principle of 1/3rd to 1/5th of a platoon?
A platoon?
A company, or squadron? Maybe, but then use the whole word, rather than a sloppy abbreviation.

I'm guessing that it is grounded in the same attention to detail that gave us Mitchell and Webb's space show. Get the basic terminology correct, especially for the title.. It's not exactly rocket surgery.
