War Selection — a pseudo-historical real-time strategy with base construction, resource gathering, and military engagements. Dozens of players in a single match fight on a random map. Each player starts from the Stone Age. In the course of the match, he chooses his culture, and then a specific country. In this way, the entire historical diversity of human civilization is represented. Each chosen path brings its own unique gameplay experience. Depending on the choice, the game mechanics and possibilities are supplemented. Having passed through 7 historical eras, he reaches the era of heavy tanks, long-range artillery, and combat airships. The game has more than 200 buildings and more than 300 types of units. Three branches of troops are represented: land, air, and naval. All 7 historical eras and 8 different cultures are immediately available to you for free. In Sandbox mode, you can test all their game mechanics, build impressive cities, and withstand the forces of nature and enemy troops. In online modes, you can compete for primacy with other players on endlessly diverse game maps. Additionally, in our in-game store you can get access to 12 unique countries with their own units, buildings, and mechanics, and to special game modes both for single-player and for team play. Varied game modes: Survival in confrontation with hordes*; Match — every man for himself; Ranked battle 1x1 and 2x2; Sandbox; Team match; Tug of war*; Armageddon* — a mode where it is necessary to constantly and without delay expand your territory. *If you want to broaden and deepen your gaming experience, both with friends and in single-player, then in our in-game store you can always purchase access, including for in-game currency, to additional special game modes and to twelve unique countries with their own units and game mechanics.
