Review: AirMech

AirMech® Strike is a fast-paced Action-RTS game that can be played online competitively or cooperatively. Earn Kudos and Experience in battle and unlock a wide collection of AirMechs and Units while you practice the perfect Strategy to emerge victoriously!

AirMech has recently undergone a huge overhaul to prepare the game to leave Early Access. This includes a new 3D lobby, new Matchmaking and Ranking system, and a return of Custom games and a Lobby browser. This version is actively replacing many of the old systems of the game, so we appreciate your patience while we finish this significant improvement. We believe that upgrading AirMech to Strike is a better approach than making AirMech 2, since it keeps all your current progress.

Some of the systems we have experimented with during Early Access which do not fit Strike's PVP focus are coming to AirMech Wastelands, a companion game that does not contain any PvP. Look for that coming soon!

AirMech Gameplay

You can do decent damage to the enemy fort using just your AirMech shooting the corners.

You can use islands to store infantry on maps like Sandrim.lol

Fortresses are NOT damaged by Area of Effect Attacks.

Defensive infantry spam is one of the most efficient ways to keep an outpost. Just keep building infantry and dropping them at the outpost that is being attacked. Remember that if the enemy takes the outpost they can pull units out of their build queue and fortify the outpost while depriving you of that advantage, so be sure not to let that happen. Naturally this doesn't work for tank pushes or masses of units (unless you have brutes in the fort and bunkered, which no one does).

Placing mines on creep paths that run near other expensive units is a good way to get rid of clumped units.

When you're AirMech hunting, carry seekers with you for backup.

When you're building units, don't wait for them to finish (Go out and harass and kill enemy tanks, creeps, money makers, etc.). To quote the Zerg from Starcraft:"Evolve, change, and survive. Stand still and die."(awesome accent not included)

If you buy abilities don't forget to use them.

Try to put your enemy in lose-lose situations. Put down tanks rolling from one side and start capping outposts from the other.
