Combined-arms strategy

Warfare, in Kiloton, comes in four main forms. 

• Ground Battles

• Air Battles

• ICBMS (Intercontinental Ballistic Missiles) and ABMS (Anti-Ballistic Missiles)

• Economic

You will develop competency in all four theaters if you mean to come out of the Cold War alive. 

Economic strategy

Kiloton has an atypical approach to resource management: you don't manage 'money,' you manage cities. Your cities grow or shrink over time depending on your economy's strength. Your economic strength is a function of your population against your spending.

"Population" is not an abstract number: your population live in destructible pixel-based cities on the map. You may capture (or destroy) enemy population centers to stop your enemies from waging war. 

Research and Development

You will guide your nation's research focuses as you see fit. There are four research disciplines, each with five progress tiers.

• Ground-combat

• Air Defense

• Aircraft

• Intercontinental Ballistic Missiles

At each tier of progress, the related assets will increase in a specific strength; range, damage, health, speed, etc.

Will you invest in missile defense, and protect your cities? Will you invest in the strength of your army, to capture enemy cities? Or will you build only missile silos, and hope that no enemy will be foolish enough to make you use them?

Don't be so sure...

The threat of Nuclear Annihilation...
