How to play
Protect the central fortress from incoming enemy waves. Your armored train continuously circles the battlefield and automatically fires at enemies, while you focus on making tactical decisions.
Defeat enemies to earn gold and experience. Spend experience on powerful upgrades during the run, and use gold between waves to buy new combat wagons or upgrade existing ones.
Mark priority targets to concentrate your train's firepower where it matters most. When the situation becomes critical, take direct control of the fortress's main cannon in first-person mode and destroy enemy groups with precise manual fire.
Survive every wave, defeat powerful bosses, unlock permanent upgrades, and experiment with different wagon combinations to build the ultimate armored defense train.
