Commanders!
Meet the Ares family—four brand-new American medium tanks from Tier VIII up to a Tier XI topper, all equipped with distinctive Thermal Overheat Control autocannons.
These autocannons fire continuously without a traditional reload cycle. Each shot is fired the moment you press the trigger—no clip reloads, no interruptions. You set the tempo yourself. Tap to maintain tighter control over the temperature, or hold to unleash sustained burst fire.
Thermal Overheat Control Autocannon: How It Works
Every shot generates heat, no matter how slowly you fire, and that heat gradually reduces the gun's effectiveness. If you fire rapidly or for too long, the weapon eventually reaches a critical temperature. At that point, the Thermal Overheat Control system activates and temporarily locks firing to prevent damage, re-enabling the gun only after it cools back down.
Autocannon Mechanics #1: Precision at Range
The Ares line rewards steady, well-managed firing cycles that let you keep the gun temperature—and your performance—under control. Fire short bursts or single rounds to keep the heat low and maintain higher accuracy.
Autocannon Mechanics #2: Full Burst in Close Combat
When the fight gets close, just hold the trigger and unleash your full damage output. The gun will heat rapidly; accuracy will drop, but at close range every shell may find its mark. Sustain fire until the gun overheats, then fall back while it cools down.

Ares 90 C—A Tier XI Hotshot with Exclusive Upgrade Nodes
The new line culminates in the Ares 90 C, a top-tier medium tank. Its powerful autocannon, decent stabilization, and reserve track system make it one of the most flexible Tier XI mediums in the game.
Unlike the lower-tier vehicles in the line, which use Field Modification, the Ares 90 C has access to an exclusive Tier XI upgrade system.
From Ares 75 to Ares 90—Evolving Power
The lower-tier vehicles—the Ares 75 (Tier VIII), Ares 85 (Tier IX), and Ares 90 (Tier X)—introduce the same core mechanic but with gradually improving damage potential and statistics. Each tank changes how quickly the gun heats up—lower-tier Ares vehicles generate less heat per shot and can fire longer before reaching critical temperature, while higher-tier ones hit harder but heat up faster. This creates clear progression toward Tier XI.
