LANDSTRIKE

// FIELD BRIEFING

Landstrike is a map-based campaign engine for running military operations across contested regions. Armies maneuver, supply lines strain, objectives shift, and battles emerge from operational choices.

It is not a tactical miniatures game by itself. It is the layer above the battle: the map, the orders, the consequences, and the reason the engagement matters.

// WHAT YOU DO

Issue orders to forces on a campaign map
Capture objectives and pressure enemy positions
Manage supply, fatigue, and operational tempo
Resolve engagements using your preferred battle system
Watch the front collapse somewhere you ignored

// WHAT IT IS FOR

Solo campaigns
Referee-led wargame campaigns
Linked tabletop battles
Operational sandboxes
Testing fictional wars without writing a novel first

// CAMPAIGN MAP

STATUS: FRONT UNSTABLE

Hexes, regions, roads, depots, objectives, and hostile zones form the living map. Units do not simply fight. They arrive late, overextend, lose contact, seize ground, and become problems for whoever must command them next.

WARNING: Victory at the wrong place may still lose the campaign.

// DESIGN INTENT

Landstrike exists to answer the question most battle games skip:

Why are these forces here, what did it cost to get them here, and what happens after the smoke clears?

It is designed to create meaningful engagements, not balanced skirmishes. A battle may be unfair because the campaign made it unfair.

// CURRENT TRANSMISSION

Landstrike is currently in active development and testing. The goal is a lean campaign engine that produces battles with context, consequence, and operational tension.

Bring your own soldiers. Landstrike gives them somewhere to suffer.
