Shattered Union

Become the leader vying for control of a fractured United States during a Second Civil War!

Product Information

Set atop the smoldering ruins of a fictional United States torn apart by civil war, Shattered Union is an action-packed turn-based strategy game.  The country is at war with itself, and players can choose to lead one of seven bellicose factions: Greater California, The New Republic of Texas, the Heartland. Dixieland, the Yankee Union, or the exploitive European Expeditionary Force. 

The game's combination of familiar American battlegrounds and fictional nation-states encourages players to re-imagine history, and claim it all under their lone flag. Although orders are given in a turn-based fashion, they are executed simultaneously. Detailed unit animations and fully destructible landscapes bring action and chaos to the strategic gameplay. Gamers can play through the single player campaign to reunite the country by force or online in one-on-one matches.

Your choices in battle affect you politically - lead wisely.  Capture tank factories in Ohio, lay siege to Chicago, or drop a nuke on LA.


Product Features

• Modern 3D tactical war game viewed from a "bird's-eye" overhead camera.
• Non-linear mission progression with changes based on player-made decisions.
• Real-time resolution of turned-based moves. Take your time while you decide your move, but once you have selected your action, see the results all play out in full animation models, exploding vehicles, and burning cities and forests!
• Fully destructible terrain/environment. As the battle proceeds, everything from explosions and destroyed buildings permanently mark the terrain. Moving tanks will leave tread marks that stay for the duration of the mission. At the end, very little will look the same.
• Fight your way across the United States! Had enough of the windy city? Then go ahead and bomb Chicago! Invade across the Rockies into California, capture the tank factories in Ohio, and lay siege to New York City! You decide - the fate of the nation is in your hands!
• Choose to play as one of seven different factions: California Commonwealth, Pacifica, Republic of Texas, Great Plains Federation, The Confederacy, New England Alliance and the European Union.
