Four of Xbox Game Pass's Finest Turn-Based Strategy Titles

Four of Xbox Game Pass's Finest Turn-Based Strategy Titles

On the PC, strategy and simulation games are immensely popular, and now they're starting to gain momentum on the Xbox.

Four of Xbox Game Pass's Finest Turn-Based Strategy Titles That You Should Play

Developers are always looking for new ways to make more complex games playable with the Xbox controller despite the fact that many strategy titles perform better with mouse and keyboard control. Xbox should be able to satisfy your demands, regardless of whether your goal is to command enormous armies of space marines against hostile aliens or to build your own city from the bottom up. Turn-based games are getting increasingly popular, so if you're interested in playing one and perhaps want the potential chance to win money then you can do so on wish casinos. Within the online platform, you also have the available chance to play traditional casino games like blackjack, roulette, poker etc.

Nevertheless, within this article, we will be mentioning four turned-based strategy games that you can play via the Xbox Game Pass.

Age of Empires IV

The real-time strategy game Age of Empires IV, which was created by Relic Entertainment and World's Edge, builds on the incredible legacy of previous instalments in the Age of Empires series. It's similar to other real-time strategy games in that you have to build towns and armies while exploring the planet, but the graphics and gameplay have been enhanced. If you've never tried any of the previous games in the Age of Empires series before, you should start with Age of Empires IV and see if you enjoy the way it plays before moving on to any of the others in the series.

New Add-on coming for Halo Wars

New Add-on coming for Halo Wars
Published by: Mattster on Monday, July 20, 2009
Tagged: Xbox 360,

I know many members play Halo Wars and will be excited to learn that an addon pack will available soon.

It’s called Historic Battles and it will be available July 21st for 800 points and it has four new maps and four new Achievements. Here is a breakdown of what Historic Battles for Halo Wars will contain:



* Barrens (1v1 Map): Difficult terrain channels units into killing zones. The side that controls the Forerunner artifacts will have the advantage.
* Blood River (1v1 Map): Secure base locations on nearby cliffs overlook this naturally red-tinged river. The soldiers that fought over its two narrow crossings gave the river its name, which has since taken on a greater meaning.
* Glacial Ravine (3v3 Map): A snow-topped mountain range forms a natural barrier that cuts this region in half. Control of the two energy walls at the narrow central pass often determines the outcome of the battle, though clever use of the Sentinel Factories may play a role as well.
* Memorial Basin (2v2 Map): The high ground in the middle offers good cover for infantry, while the generally open terrain transforms organized battle plans into bloodbaths.

The four new Achievements worth a total of 100 points are:

* Tour Coming Through: Hot drop 50 squads to your Covenant Leader in a single game on Memorial Basin (30 points)
* Never Leave a Man Behind: Finish a game with 5000 net resources contributed to your teammates on Memorial Basin (15 points)
* Drain Cleaner: Kill 20 enemy squads with a continuous Covenant Leader Power on Memorial Basin (30 points)
* Killjoy: Disrupt 5 active Leader Powers in a single game on Blood River (25 points)
