Tank Warfare: Tunisia 1943 brings heavy metal to the battlefield

Tank Warfare: Tunisia 1943, the historically-accurate game of tank combat developed by wargames developer Graviteam, is now available on Steam.  The latest release from the team, who’ve given players the chance to wage war in their previous releases, Graviteam Tactics: Operation Star and Steel Armor: Blaze of War, is available at a special discounted price of $33.99, a 15% savings from its $39.99 MSRP. This special offer will last until May 7 to commemorate the end of the second World War.

“Hardcore strategy gamers want the upmost sense of realism to match the urgency of real-world conflict,” said Vladimir Zayarniy, Graviteam CEO. “Our combination of smart design and definitive history, put together by true World War II aficionados, will floor those looking for a new take on the uncompromising game of war.”

For those who haven’t been following the title, Tank Warfare: Tunisia 1943 is set against the backdrop of the Tunisian Campaign in winter 1943. During the conflict, German Panzers launched a daring counteroffensive against the Allies to force them out of Eastern Dorsal. Players take command of either US Army and Wehrmacht tank divisions and battle it out with over 50 vehicles produced by Germany, USA and the United Kingdom over 400 sq. km of realistic terrain that was painstakingly recreated using topographical maps and other media.
