About Ability Wars:
I can’t in good faith recommend this game. The foundation is solid. The historical accuracy, the plane/tank models, the damage model, are all there, great and very realistic. But all of it is ruined by the economy and questionable developer/balance/gameplay choices. The progress in unlocking and researching new vehicles is very quick and satisfying in rank 1. But by the middle/end of rank 2 of any nation progress will become increasingly slower, and the cost to buy the already researched vehicles grows more and more, so much so that you can barely afford anything at some point. Almost everything costs silver lions, one of the MANY currencies in game, even the ammunition for each vehicle, and if you don’t have a premium account, and at a certain point even if you have one, the mission rewards won’t be enough to let you play at higher ranks continuously. It’s bad, and it ruins the whole experience. The worst thing is that, when your vehicle gets damaged in a mission, you’ll have to pay silver lions to repair it, OR wait several hours or days for it to repair for free. While in the first few ranks the cost is acceptable as you get rewarded way more than that for each mission, as you unlock more expensive vehicles the repair cost will be too much to be sustainable. Which means you’ll probably have to wait up to days to play with that same vehicle again. This creates a vicious psychological cycle. You don’t want to be destroyed in a mission or get your vehicle damaged as when that happens you’ll most likely become very frustrated.
