Premise, Story, Concept

In 2078 humanity succumbed to its own creation, and AI overtook the last human empire.

In time, multiple AI factions have risen, each vying for control of Earth’s power and resources. Now ruled by machines, the Meaty are used for menial jobs, left alive to solve CAPTCHAs and act as bullet sponges for the machines. Now combating for the remaining scarce worldly resources, rival AI forces continue to embark on a relentless campaign to subjugate humanity as they wage war against one another.

However, one AI faction plagued by its inability to generate a true random number, and impressed by the Meaty's truly unpredictable nature, has decided to give you—a chosen Meaty—an opportunity to command the battlefield.

In this tactical focused turn-based strategy, players step into the shoes of one of the few remaining human commanders spearheading the resistance against invading AI forces.

Your role on the battlegrounds of this digital dystopia will require you to skillfully deploy advanced infantry units, manage a number of finite resources, all while continually grappling with the decisions of when and where to expand your command post.

Can you prove your worth, or will you be given a shield and told to stand very still while the Lazbots blast away in front of you?

Game Description

Mordfield Command is a turn-based 4X strategy game built on a hex-based map, blending original ideas with proven mechanics from genre classics to deliver a fresh yet familiar experience. At its core is a deeply engaging combat system—designed for balance, depth, and replayability—where every move matters. Players must assemble and command armies of elite units, carefully managing resources and advancing technology to outmaneuver and ultimately eliminate ruthless AI opponents across procedurally generated battlefields.

The game emphasizes tactical richness: unit positioning, movement, and abilities all play critical roles in determining victory. A distinctive action point system amplifies this depth, allowing players to chain extra actions and abilities in order to seize key advantages. Since the AI forces are generally stronger throughout the game, mastering these tactical bursts is essential for turning the tide and overpowering the enemy. Combined with a wide variety of build strategies, technology perks, and specialized units, this system ensures that no two runs unfold the same way.

Mordfield Command offers multiple ways to play: a full campaign experience, a range of unique challenge scenarios, PvE skirmishes, as well as both PvP and co-op multiplayer modes. These options give players the freedom to test their tactics against relentless AI, take on handcrafted trials, or face off with friends and rivals.

Features and Mechanics

• Tactical Combat: Command your forces in turn-based battles on grid-based maps. Every unit carries distinct abilities, and victory hinges on clever positioning, timing, and the efficient use of limited action points. Outsmart and overwhelm a superior AI by chaining abilities, coordinating squads, and adapting your strategy on the fly.
• Base Building & Expansion: Construct and upgrade your command post while managing scarce resources. Balance power generation, infrastructure, and military production to maintain your war machine under constant pressure.
• Resource Control: Seven unique resources drive both economy and warfare. Secure vital supply lines, capture mineral deposits and oil fields, and deny your enemy the means to grow. Every decision on the map reshapes the balance of power.
• Army Customization: Tailor your army to your preferred style of play—whether through heavy armor, surgical strikes, or overwhelming numbers. Unlock upgrades through an expansive technology tree.
• Replayability & Challenge: No two battles play the same. With dynamically generated PvE skirmishes, evolving terrain, multiple modes of play, and a deep tech tree, each campaign offers new tactical challenges and opportunities to experiment.
