Hello guys! Today, we will explain how the Overwatch mechanic works in the Strategic Mind series. This is one of the key combat mechanics, and arguably the one that brings the most woe to all the players. We have heard a lot of feedback on it over the years and made some adjustments over the course of Strategic Mind series development. It is the most frustrating if you are not aware of the ways to counter this mechanic - as in that case it could be truly devastating to your war effort. So, today we will have a look at how to deal with the enemy Overwatch effectively.
About the Weekly feature series
The Strategic Mind series has a quite sophisticated set of core mechanics, some of which are a novelty for the genre, for example, the supply system. The upside is that the game has lots to explore even for seasoned wargame veterans and offers everyone a new experience. The downside is that oftentimes the players lack the time to master all the core mechanics, especially after a hard working week, when you want to spend more time with your family during the weekend.
We have decided to start a new series of short tutorial videos called Weekly feature. In this series, we will have a closer look at one core mechanic at a time. We hope that it will help the new players to grasp the game faster, and the veteran players to learn a couple of new tricks. For example, we will explain in more detail the Surrender mechanic or the damage calculation rules. It should be especially helpful to the players who are new to the wargame genre.
