Gameplay

edit

The gameplay is inspired by the seminal real-time strategy game Total Annihilation. Players build ground, air and sea factories producing military units across three technology tiers and experimental massive units, as well as varied static defenses and walls to protect their base. Resources include ore, that is obtained at regular intervals from the headquarters as well as mines which must be placed on rare deposits found on the map. The other resource is power, which is a static resource supplied by various power plants and used by buildings and some units.

Where its direct predecessor Land Sea Warfare added naval units, Machines at War 3 adds infantry units, campaign missions and the long anticipated online multiplayer mode to the Machines at War series.
