Retaliation Path of War
Free GameAbout Retaliation Path of War
Retaliation is a new and original turn-based strategy wargame.
Do you enjoy the fun of playing Risk but you've often felt limited by its simplicity?
Are you curious about wargames but daunted by complex rules and extreme realism?
Then Retaliation is the game for you: easy to learn, fast to play and yet challenging and never repeating.
Both the casual gamer looking for a quick tank battle and the cunning armchair strategist desiring to find alternative ways to solve war scenarios will greatly enjoy playing Retaliation: simple rules but endless strategy.
The basic premise is similar to other turn-based strategy games: you conquer land to access resources needed to enlarge your army in order to be able to launch assaults and eventually vanquish the enemy. Depending on the terrain and layout of the particular map, different strategies will need to be used. Often the maps are not symmetrical and you'll need to use a very different strategy from the one the computer is using.
There are always many ways to achieve the same goal: different strategies that can be adopted. Do you like hoarding power and launching a single total assault with a huge army? Do you prefer instead a war of attrition, with constant harassment of enemy supply lines? Are your soldiers hiding or advancing? Are you cautiously flanking the enemy or daringly assaulting her frontally? Will you let the enemy hold those rich resources or will you wrestle them to the last man?
But most importantly... are you feeling lucky? Remember: not everything goes as planned...
If you like turn-based strategy games, you will love Retaliation. If you don't like turn-based strategy games, you will probably fall in love with them after playing Retaliation!

Although the tutorial is extremely misleading. It states that only rolls of 5 or 6 constitute as a hit when this is simply not the case. I hit with rolls of 3 often and have seen the AI hit with a roll of 2. It baffles me that this was overlooked. Update- Thank you very much for the reply! A reference sheet to both damage tables would be nice!

Decent risk-like game that could be really good. I love all the combat modifying tiles. The graphics are pretty good. It definitely needs a confirmation button to end turns. I kept skipping my turn trying to scroll around the map. Also, on some levels reinforcements stopped being awarded after about turn 20. I also noticed the A.I. doesn't know how to build their production. Which leads to pretty much a one sided war of attrition.

I was waiting for a long time to play this great new game on the go after having enjoyed it thoroughly on windows! this is a deceptively simple game which is actually very deep in strategic situations. You learn the game by playing the missions: they are basically a full tutorial!

Good turn based strategy. Hopefully there will be more units down the road. Would give it 5 stars but the AI rolls nothing but 4,5,6 and it gets a little frustrating to replay battles because of it.

this seems to be a really fun, deep strategy / combat game, as described. I am stilll figuring everything out, as tutorials are either youtube or online manual format. if I could nitpick, I guess I'd personally prefer in-game hints or guidance to learn the game. otherwise, it's a blast. well done!

Who said the combat rolls are unbiased? I beg to differ 6 misses on my part and the AI hit me 5/6 times fix it and I'll upgrade the rating
