## What is Tank Battle?

Tank Battle: East Front is an exhilarating turn based strategy game from the creators of Tank Battle: 1944 and Ancient Battle: Rome. Use hex based tactical combat to dominate foes on the Russian front of the Second World War. Fight as the Germans or the Soviets in a series of ever more complex missions. The Eastern front of World War II saw some of the most ferocious fighting, as the Red Army and the Wehrmacht pitted ever more powerful tanks against each other. While the early years of the war saw the Soviets struggle to withstand the German Blitzkrieg, the later stages saw the Red Army counter-attack in great force. Missions vary from straightforward wipe out the enemy scenarios, to capturing key objectives, to protecting vital supply convoys and constructing bridges to assault the enemy. There are a whole range of objectives to reflect the tactical complexity of warfare on the Eastern Front, and conquer your enemy with over 110 historical units. The game system is based on, and a major upgrade of, the successful game engine developed for ‘Tank Battle: North Africa’.

### 2/5 — Too bad….

*2025-02-02*

Could be a great game but scoring is broken which is a basis of the game.  Doesn’t seem like they update it any longer

### 5/5 — It says purchase but when I hit restore

*2021-04-07*

Boom I go in the place!

### 1/5 — It’s a money pit

*2020-02-11*

I paid the fee to download, but each mission cost more just to play. Ripoff!!

### 1/5 — Sides

*2019-12-12*

How do I change sides. The game has me playing the German side I would like to switch and play the allied side at my discretion

### 4/5 — Sinkorrat

*2019-10-13*

I have purchased all Tank Battle games. I love the game-+ think it is tge best platform for games on IOS. 
However, the many changes made to the game play and interface over the years leave me unhappy with the direction you are taking.

The HD graphic make it harder or impossible to read. Why are the onts so small and not scalable?

Game plat has often changed, mostly for the worse. One of my favorite missions ‘ Rail Delay’ TB 1945 EF, has been made unwinnable. Why?

There are many other missons that are now unwinnable.

The scoring system is neaningless. Please return to the original version.

Is it possible to revert to older versions of the game? Pre HD?

### 1/5 — Do not buy without reading

*2019-09-21*

Bought this as I like all their other tank games nowhere does it state that it is basically a compendium of all the other eastern front games, which it is. So if you have the other games 1941 through don’t bother. Wish I hadn’t. Feel like I have been conned.

### 1/5 — What happened?

*2019-07-27*

I’ve paid for this game and now with the update all the levels I’ve paid for now are saying I’ll have to pay again? Get your #$!@# together !

### 2/5 — Serious feature reduction

*2019-05-06*

Not only have I lost access to many scenarios that I already paid for (also observed by others), but I no longer seem to have P2P capabilities, which was a major reason I bought the game.

### 3/5 — Tank battle east front

*2019-01-07, version 1.3*

The play does’nt go on on the second battle of red anvil in tank battle east front, can you open the other progressive battles, it is impossible to win the second step in my opinion.
If you will resolve my problem, I will buy also the 1945 campaign.
Regards
Domenico Berselli

### 1/5 — Fight back reinforcements never come

*2018-12-28*

The 1944 fight back scenario is faulty.  After 41 turns of defending CP2, the reinforcements never come. And I can’t access scenario 3 and up since scenario 2 can’t be completed.
