is a real-time action and strategy game concerning two political factions which have gone to war over a distant world.
By combining strategic combat with fast-paced 3D action elements, Ground Control delivers a fresh experience that appeals to a wide audience, including online gaming enthusiasts. At its core, Ground Control is a frenetically-paced, real-time simulator played out in a visually stunning 3D world. During the course of the game, you will be challenged in an intense arena of battle, managing tactical squads of foot soldiers, mobile units, aircraft, and support units as they vie for control of a distant planet.
Command your squads in a variety of formations, across rugged terrain, and to victory in several different mission objectives. Ground Control eliminates many of the tedious aspects of typical games and focuses its gameplay on tactics, strategy, and the art of battle. There are numerous types of tanks, hover bikes, airplanes, and soldiers that will be at your disposal. Once you are in battle you won't be able to bring in reinforcements, so proper troop selection will be key to success. Each unit type has special weapons, abilities, and armor that you can custom fit to each unit. Or let the game auto-select the proper load for each mission. Advanced artificial intelligence makes your troops and your enemy's troops act and fight realistically, meanwhile, a free-floating camera allows you to zoom in and out and view the action from any angle.
