Tank Battle Classic Launches On Steam With Angle-Based Penetration
Developer Chobi released the single-player tank action game Tank Battle Classic on PC via Steam. It is set in World War II combat vehicles. The core system replaces health bars with armor modeling. Armor thickness varies by hull part, and penetration power changes with impact angle and distance, so a single penetrating shot can destroy a tank. Missions cover suburbs, urban areas, forests, mountains, and plains, and include close-quarters fights, long-range interception, dense fog encounters, and escort missions. Points from cleared missions buy new tanks, and most missions let players swap the enemy and allied vehicles that deploy, upgrade vehicle performance per mission, and tune difficulty. The roster includes 16 vehicles such as the BT-7, T-34/76, T-34/85, KV-1, KV-2, IS-2, Panzer III, StuG III, Panzer IV, Panther G, Jagdpanther, Tiger I, Tiger II, Hetzer, Sd.Kfz.251/22 Pakwagen, and Sd.Kfz.251 Half-track. The game costs 1,350 yen, with a 30 percent discount to 945 yen until October 9. Chobi has worked on tank-related apps including Tank Caterpillar Appreciation App and Tokyo Danchi Tank.
