Call to Arms - Gates of Hell is a realistic RTS/ RTT game that offers endless replay value. Command all types of troops in historical singleplayer, dynamic campaign, PvP and PvE battles. Are you ready for some serious immersion in World War 2?
The game combines classic real-time strategy elements with a deep tactical focus on controlling individual units and vehicles. Players have the ability to directly control any infantry, crew-served weapon, or vehicle, providing a level of tactical control and involvement not seen in many other RTS titles.
Each individual soldier, gunner, and vehicle crew member has their own inventory, stats, and role. Players can micromanage their forces down to the individual level, equipping them with specific weapons and gear. This level of granular control extends to positioning units, adjusting stances, and directing the actions of each soldier or crew member. The ability to seamlessly switch between commanding a whole squad and taking direct control of a single soldier or vehicle crew further enhances the tactical depth. Players can precisely target enemies, position units optimally, and execute devastating attacks.
The game's combat system rewards combined arms tactics. Players must carefully coordinate their infantry, support weapons, armor, and other assets to overcome the enemy. Positioning, weapon selection, and timing are crucial as players engage in intense, combined-arms firefights. Each unit type has distinct strengths and weaknesses, requiring players to understand their capabilities and limitations. Effectively utilizing the right mix of units, supporting each other, and exploiting the enemy's weaknesses is key to success. The realistic damage modeling and armor penetration mechanics emphasize the importance of combined arms. Players must consider the effectiveness of their weapons against different target types and armor layouts to achieve desired results.
The highly destructible environment adds to the tactical complexity. Players can use terrain, buildings, and obstacles to their advantage, setting up ambushes, fortified positions, and fields of fire. The dynamic nature of the battlefield, with collapsing structures and craters forming from artillery, forces players to constantly adapt their strategies. The authentic sound effects, graphics, and physics create an immersive, realistic experience that further enhances the tactical gameplay.
The game offers a variety of gameplay modes to suit different playstyles. The singleplayer campaign, dynamic conquest mode, and multiplayer options (PvP and cooperative) provide ample replayability. The dynamic conquest mode allows for persistent, evolving campaigns where players build and manage their own army groups, conducting research and strategically advancing across a large collection of maps.
