[h2]War Game[/h2]
Call to Arms - Gates of Hell is unlike any game in its theme because of how it was designed; the elements that set it apart are its replay value, realism, and the use and recreation of actual historical battlegrounds.
It offers PvE and PvP options and five game modes.



The main goal of this wargame is to offer something that is more or less representative of actual war, in terms of atmosphere and scenarios.

[h2]Damage model[/h2]
In Call to Arms - Gates of Hell, the internal components of tanks and vehicles are modeled.
Because of that, it matters where you hit your opponent’s tank, which can be decisive in battle. Combine this with the fact that landscapes in this game are recreated from the actual battlegrounds, and you will have a situation in which real-life tactics actually work!



[h2]Instantly Switchable Views[/h2]
Besides the classic top-down views, this game also offers (instantly switchable) first-person views of vehicles, tanks, and artillery.
For infantry, the top-down view is also available. However, you can choose to play infantry in 3rd person view as well! Some infantry units offer 1st person views, such as snipers and officers carrying binoculars. Regular infantry can be used in 3rd person view.

[h2]Skill[/h2]
Is a war game like this easy to learn? Probably not.
The difference with other games is the level of micro-management it allows and requires.
In Call to Arms - Gates of Hell, a series of extensive tutorial missions is available; these are highly recommended, especially if you are new to the game, but even seasoned players have confessed that they learned something from these tutorials. We’ve extracted and bundled the tutorials into a set of 3 videos, available on our YouTube channel in a separate playlist that can be found by clicking HERE.
If you want to see what content creators have produced for this game lately, check YouTube or Twitch.
