Build, manage, fight in a post apocalyptic RTS game

Sadness of Valor is a real-time strategy game (RTS). Building on the foundations of the genre, it draws heavily from the greatest titles to create a story-driven game without forgetting the customized battles that make this game category well-known to everyone.
As a commander aboard the Global Support Orbital Station (GSOS-3), capable of rapidly intervening on parts of the planet, you ensure the survival of humanity. However, nothing goes as planned. Face the chaotic desert left by the planet and uncover the mysteries of the story.

Build your base, establish your defenses or attacks, manage your base and its resources to achieve the best performance.
Take part in humanitarian aid in the campaign. Compete against AI or your friends in custom matches. Play as a fully controllable tank in an asymmetric custom game.

This game bases its gameplay on managing and positioning units during combat. Resources are scarce, forcing the player to find the best efficiency to reach the objective and win. Unit shots can be avoided, and friendly fire is possible and dangerous.

An RTS is a game where you need to plan as much as possible. Take the time to understand the advantages of each game mechanic, units, buildings, and upgrades.

Fight friends or AI on board of a tank in a FPS view in the Asymmetric mode from custom games.

Upgrade your army with skins and personalisations earned by matchmaking vs AI
