I'd hate to get political, but in light of recent events I would like to criticize Gaijin's predatory behavior with the following:

When the means of production become monopolized, and that individuals cannot make ends meet without participating in the machinery of exploitation because the masters of this meat grinder will not surrender their total control through compromise, then the only way out is for the workers to rise up and seize the means of production. If the capitalist is wise, as they should be and have been in most developed countries, he should realize that by making compromises and uses his assets creatively which benefit the whole of society, he has the most to gain and takes the least risk. However, if the capitalist becomes the oligarch, and then the kleptocrat only to secure his power and relative position in society, and halts advancements because he perceives them as threatening, then he has become the arch-reactionary, the enemy of the people, and will be overthrown eventually, simply because exploitation is the opposite of creativity, and a social order where vultures sit at the top is unsustainable and eventually consumes itself.

Early Access Review
This game gives my brain boners. 19/39 Would blitz again.

All the other reviews have got this pretty much summed up, so I'll just add a tid bit from my experience.
DO NOT start with the first scenario, it is the hardest! It may seems sensible to start with WW1 tanks, but simply creating something that can cross all those trenches can get very difficult, especially when you are still trying to figure out what to do. As of the current build it seems that the tracks 1) don't really have much traction in trench mud and 2) dont have its own collision model, meaning that the bit of track between your front sprocket/idler and the 1st road wheel cant act as a bit of ramp when it contacts the other side of the trench, which also means that you don't have traction to push the tank further. I got through using a very big front sprocket (which will be very vulnerable and prone to break irl) and a comically long hull (almost 8m). This leaves barely enough weight for armor to survive the whole armor division trying to kill you (4 AT guns, 6 light tanks, 2 heavies). Also the map is huge and full of mud craters, and you need to cross 4 of those trenches without overheating your engine with 1918 tech, so pray to the omnissiah for best results.

Overall though game is pretty engaging, all the other levels are much easier in comparison, allowing you to try different strategies. Considering its one guy working on it don't expect war thunder level graphics or details, Unity also may not be the best engine for armor sims. It has the potential to be much more though, so definitely worth a wishlist follow if you are into this niche. Also best wishes to the dev, you are doing god's work here.

80 percent of players defeated the first boss and proceeded to have a really good time.
