How we do things back East.
Venerable wargaming imprint Slitherine are getting ready to ship Battle Academy 2 for PC this Friday, but the iPad version is just entering closed beta. Closed. It’s only available to a shadowy cabal of Slitherine’s mandarins — and to you. Well… some of you.
Slitherine reached out and offered to give 5 closed slots to Pocket Tactics readers, giving you early access to the sequel to one of the very best wargames on iOS. To win, just drop a line here in the comments of this post and tell us what your favourite tank from World War II is. We’ll give away those those beta slots at 9pm London time tonight, picking 4 at random and I’ll pick one answer that I liked the most.
If you don’t already have a Pocket Tactics Forum account, read this on how to register one. It’s a slightly more daunting process than signing up for most forums, but it’s that high barrier to entry that makes PT‘s forum community the most electrifying discussion group in sports entertainment today.
Battle Academy 2 takes the company-level turn-based tactical gameplay of the original Battle Academy and ships across Europe to the Eastern front. There’s new features like smoke effects, trenches and other fortifications, and a reworked air cover system. There’s four campaigns (two Soviet, two Axis) and 130 different units. There’s no set-in-stone iOS release date yet but you can fire it up on your PC this weekend.
Watch the trailer below, and good luck getting the PT Magic 8-Ball to choose you.
