Elements of War Online is a free-to-play massively multiplayer online real-time strategy game (MMORTS) set in a war in the near future. Enter the battle on the side of either the Russian attackers or the American defenders. As commander of your very own strike force, you can choose between dozens of ultra-realistic military units ranging from assault infantry to mighty battle tanks and lightning-fast attack helicopters.
Once you have set up your initial strike force, you will face the enemy in action-packed tactical real-time battles. With tactics based around four players on each side, unit composition and team play will be the deciding factor. In order to win, you need to capture key points on the maps and defend them against the enemy. The more points you claim, the more reinforcements you can call to your aid. So a quick and well-planned course of action is essential.
After the battle, you will be rewarded with experience and “Kip”, which can be used to upgrade troops and buy new and more powerful units.
Each battle will affect the distribution of power on the continent so plan your attacks carefully!
Key Features
Strategic map with 50 different battle zones
Fight for control of the American continent and force the enemy to retreat. Each battle won will tilt sector control in your faction’s favor.
16 maps (forest, desert, town, plains, hills)
Set up an ambush in the forest, lead your troops through scorching deserts and drive your tanks across open lands. Each map features different tactical challenges and possibilities.
Elemental weapons (earthquakes, tornadoes, thunder, electro-magnetic pulses, storms)
New experimental technologies utilize the forces of the natural elements to unleash devastating attacks on the enemy. Use earthquakes to collapse buildings on top of entrenched enemies or send out electromagnetic waves to disable helicopters and vehicles.
2 playable factions (USA, Russia)
Defend American soil from the Russians and drive out the invaders or side with the attackers and conquer the entire country. You decide!
More than 30 upgradeable unit types for each faction (infantry, vehicles, planes, helicopters)
Elements of War Online features dozens of realistic and highly-detailed modern warfare units, from Humvee jeeps and battle tanks to transport and attack helicopters. Equip your infantry with high-tech battle suits and take advantage of experimental new weapon systems.
Every unit has its unique advantages and disadvantages, so be careful when selecting your strike force. A battle tank will crush enemy ground units but is helpless against helicopter attacks, so better take some anti-aircraft units along too!
Up to 8 players on one map (4-vs.-4)
Each map can be played with up to 8 players, 4 on each side. Prepare for stunning battles with hundreds of units and endless tactical possibilities!
Units gather experience and gain ranks, can be equipped and learn skills
All units you deploy in battle will gain experience proportional to their battle performance. With higher levels of experience, units will fight more effectively and be more resilient to damage. As they gain experience, units will be able to use special skills and attacks. Assault marines, for example, can be equipped with grenade launchers and learn the sprint skill.
Destroyable environments
Everything on the tactical map can be rolled over, shot to pieces, blown up by artillery or destroyed in some other way. Good commanders will use this to their advantage.
