About this product

Product Information

Designed for two players only, Armor Battle for the Intellivision is a tank shooter similar to Combat for the Atari 2600. You and an opponent are rival tank commanders with one objective: maneuver your tank around one of 240 randomly selected battlefields trying to shoot your opponent while avoiding his or her fire. Control two different tanks and switch back and forth between tanks, commanding only one tank at a time.<br><br>Unlike Combat, with its simple lines and boxes, battlefields in Armor Battle feature detailed landscapes with trees, roads, grass, buildings and rivers, each of which plays a strategic role in the action. Tanks run fastest on roads, grass and water hazards slow them down, and trees and buildings make for good cover. You can't drive tanks backwards, so maneuver around obstacles.<br><br>In addition to shooting enemy tanks, you can lay invisible mines in their pathways. But mines explode after five seconds, so get out of the way or you could destroy yourself. Players get one mine per round and begin Armor Battle with fifty tanks; the player with the most tanks left at the end of the game is the winner. Before beginning a round of play, you and your opponent should agree on how many battles you wish to engage in. If one player loses all fifty tanks, the game automatically ends. An M Network version of this game called Armor Ambush was released for the Atari 2600.
