Merc Tactics is a squad-based tactical PC game, in which you engage in epic tactical shootouts. It is similar to games such as Jagged Alliance, or XCOM. The game takes place in a region where civil war has left the country in chaos. The Khondo, a vicious band of looting militia have taken control of the country. You lead a small squad of mercenaries, who have vowed to restore order and rid the country of the Khondo. You need to carefully plot your way through the region, recruiting mercenaries, upgrading your skills, procuring armour and weapons and forming alliances with friendly militia. Each location in the campaign map hosts hostile militia, which you must fight in turn-based squad combat. When your squad is strong enough you can confront the main militia army, but it will not be easy - you will need help from your allies and the best weapons and armour.

Merc Tactics is a turn based tactical strategy, mainly inspired by Jagged Alliance 2.
- Every battle scene in Merc Tactics is procedurally generated, including the buildings. Also, the entire campaign and main map and the distribution of resources and enemies are randomly generated. This means each time you play the game the outcome will be quite different.
- A considerable amount of time has being spent on perfecting the AI. AI uses 4 main positional tactics:
- Standoff (defensive attack), Zerg (frontal attack), Flank and Retreat
- The algorithm chooses tactics based on several varying factors, which make the AI both unpredictable and quite challenging.
- You can download a free playable demo from our Itch page.
- The game is in an advanced stage of development. The demo does not include the third level of the campaign, which is only available to beta testers who are willing to provide feedback. If you are interested in beta testing the game, please contact me at edwelch@astronautz.com or leave a message in the forums. We also have a Discord chatroom.
