Graviteam Tactics: Mius-Front

Graviteam Tactics: Mius-Front for PC is a war strategic game. It is developed by Graviteam from Ukraine, the creators of such games as Steel Fury: Kharkov 1942, Steel Armor: Blaze of War, and Achtung Panzer: Kharkov 1943.

Plot

The action takes place during World War II and concentrates on the terrains located near the titular Mius Front – a strongly fortified defence line built by the Germans by the Mius river. The campaign offers two vast, fully-dynamic operations conducted during summer 1943. The player can choose one of two sides participating in those operations – the Red Army or the Wehrmacht. There are no scripted scenarios – the events are shaped by an advanced AI system and its reactions to the player’s decisions.

Mechanics

Graviteam Tactics: Mius-Front for PC offers two modes of the virtual warfare. The first one, which is turn-based, consists in e.g. shifting the forces, supplying the troops, along with resupplying and replacing units. In the second, real-time tactical mode, which features the active pause, the player controls the army during battles. The developer put a strong emphasis on realism. The campaign offers over 140 sq. km of realistic landscapes reconstructed from maps and historical records. There are more than 100 vehicles which perform just like in the real world. Graviteam Tactics: Mius-Front introduces the damage system that differentiates between particular destructible vehicle parts. The ballistics of bullets and projectiles are controlled by a powerful physics engine which takes into account such factors as wind and temperature. Moreover, each soldier possesses a wide range of parameters influencing his behaviour – experience, endurance, and morale. Almost every element of environment is destructible and the terrain deformation stays until the end of campaign. The game utilises the day and night system as well as changing weather.
