A turn-based tactics campaign where your army budget isn't just a limit, it's a bank account that pays interest, so every coin you don't spend grows.

How to play
Each mission you buy and deploy a force from a points budget, then fight it out on the tactical map. The twist is economic: unspent budget accrues interest between missions, so under-committing to one battle can fund an overwhelming army in the next. Win the campaign by judging exactly how much firepower each fight truly needs.
Spend points to buy and place units before each mission.
Budget you don't spend earns interest and carries into later missions.
Clear the mission objective to advance the campaign.
Controls
Desktop: click to buy units, place them and issue orders.
Phone & tablet: tap to deploy and command, fully touch playable. A larger screen makes the map easier to read.
Tips & strategy
Win missions on the cheapest force that works, the saved points compound into a war-winning lead.
Don't starve a hard fight to save money; a lost mission costs far more than the interest.
Read the objective first, then buy exactly the tools it demands.
