BatteLine is a fast-paced, tactical board game where positioning and action economy management are key. Create your team from our roster of characters and duke it out with a friend for control of randomly generated objectives to obtain points, and eventually victory.

Manage Your Heroes:

Click on each hero and choose what action they should perform. Aim the action with the WASD keys. Make sure not to lock in until every one of your heroes has an action queued, at the end of each turn your hero loses an action point! After all character have zero action points you will go to the next round in which all your action points will be restored! Make sure to keep an eye on your characters special ability, as each character can use it to impact the game in a unique way. 

Score Points:

The big purple squares in the middle of the screen are not just for show. That is how you win! Control the objectives with your heroes to make sure victory belongs to you! You will gain 5 points per objective you are standing in at the end of each turn, and 10 points per enemy kill. The first player to 150 points wins!
