About this game
Inspired by classic RTS titles like Command & Conquer with a nod to famed board game Axis & Allies, Line War combines elements of 4X, wargame, and real-time tactics genres into a unique strategic experience for veterans and newcomers.
Line War’s versatile control system allows players to quickly and intuitively issue commands by drawing lines across the battlefield to move units, form defensive lines, engage enemies and conquer territories. Configure your command lines to filter out certain units to flank your enemies, dig-in or feed distant frontlines.
This game has a never-before-seen approach that lets you focus on drawing commands and executing a strategy rather than managing individual units. Chain commands and execute orchestrated operations for coordinated attacks against your opponent. This command system sets Line War apart from other strategy games.
Line War features a single traditional, recognizable army to ensure the game’s focus is on balance and strategy. Each unit plays a distinct and carefully balanced role.

Line War focuses on strategy. We've designed the game around the typical RTS problems to remove the steep learning curve and need for ultra-fast micro-management so you can focus on planning and executing a strategy.
- Multiplayer. Play up to 8 players online in duel, team, ffa, and co-op modes. All multiplayer game modes and constellations support between 0 and 3 AI players.
- Single-player. Play together with up to 3 AI opponents in duel, team or ffa modes.
- Co-op. Team up and take on the AIs together.
- Draw Commands. Create movement and attack commands by drawing directly onto the map, giving players flexible control over unit actions.
- Replay Again & Again. Randomly generate asymmetrical worlds to ensure no match or strategy is ever the same.
- Select Your Starting Location. Choose where to begin in each world in an innovative and fair "picking phase" to gain your initial territory.
- Focus on Strategy. Plan and strategize to achieve success on the battlefield. Actions Per Minute (APM) aren't crucial for success in Line War - strategy and planning are.
- Conquer Territory. Expand your influence and acquire resources through territory control. The more land you have, the more you’ll be able to build.
- Manage Resources. Produce energy with refineries and power plants for sustained mobility of tanks, air force, and naval vessels.
- Control One Army. Line War features a single traditional, recognizable army to ensure the game’s focus is on balance and strategy.
- Build. Build. Build. From barracks to refineries, ports to power plants, choose from dozens of unique structures. Build towns, cities, industries, and trade routes to earn resources and expand your forces.
- Handicap system. People with different skills can play against each other and asymmetric matches, like 2v1, are supported.

Line War is one of the strangest RTS games ever made
