Every metre is a decision.

Send a squad. Hold a farmhouse. Break the line. A Narrow Front battle turns a few minutes and a handful of cards into a fight for the whole road.

  1. Deploy from the card tray

    Supply ticks up along the bottom of the screen. Each squad and tank is a card with a supply cost; tap one and it walks out of your headquarters.

    What you can afford right now decides the next thirty seconds. Spend early and you hold the road; save up and you can answer their tank.

    The next decision starts in your hand.

  2. Fight from cover

    Squads advance and engage automatically. Use HOLD to dig in on a taken line, then ADVANCE when it is time to push. Hedges, sandbags and walls soak up fire, so the side in cover usually wins the exchange.

    Tanks have thick fronts and thin sides. Anti-tank teams do their best work from the flank.

    Read the ground before you commit.

  3. Take the houses

    Farmhouses along the road are capture points. Only infantry can take them, and a held house pushes the line toward the enemy.

    Scouts capture fastest; riflemen hold longest.

    Infantry take the ground your armour opens.

  4. Call in support

    Tactics cost supply too. Select one, then tap its target on your own ground: recon to see what is coming, a mortar or artillery barrage, an air strike, or a repair crate.

    Each has a cooldown, so the counterattack is the moment to spend them.

    Keep enough supply for the moment that matters.

Words from the front.

The terms a Narrow Front battle uses, in one place.

Supply
The resource you spend in a Narrow Front battle. It fills along the bottom of the screen as the battle runs, and every squad, vehicle and tactic card has a supply cost.
Card
Each squad, vehicle and tactic you can deploy is a card in your tray. Tap a unit card and it walks out of your headquarters; a tactic card is aimed at a spot on your own ground.
Headquarters
Each side has one at its end of the map. Destroying the enemy headquarters wins the battle at once.
Capture point
The farmhouses along the road. Only infantry can take them. If the clock runs out, the side holding more of them wins.
Defensive bunker
A fortified position on some maps. On those maps, a battle that reaches the clock goes to the side that destroyed more enemy bunkers.
HOLD and ADVANCE
HOLD keeps your squads dug in on the line they have taken; ADVANCE sends them forward again.
Tactic
A support action you target on your own ground: recon, a mortar or artillery barrage, an air strike or a repair crate. Tactics cost supply and have a cooldown.
