This has never happened before in trench war

Destroy the enemy's base to win!
Marbles will randomly select which soldiers to spawn. Soldiers will automatically move towards the enemy base and fire at nearby enemies.

That actually happened.... once... during WWI. There was 1 single instance where a general amassed like 13-25 tanks? (cannot remember the exact number) and sent them all in one mass attack against the enemy trenches. Sadly, he didnt send any 'infantry' with them.. so almost all ended up destroyed, but it was the first 'all armor' push in the world. It was also the attack that turned tanks into 'infantry support' role, rather than 'attack-role' for the rest of the war. Because the generals of both sides seeing that thought it meant tanks were 'useless' and that only Men could win. Wasnt till quite a bit later near the end of the war that they tried again with a mass-push of tanks, only that time WITH infantry.

Would you rather fight a mountain of tanks or a mountain-sized tank? (Probably a mountain-sized tank, since it is more complex with strained parts, making it likely that even a small malfunction can cripple the thing. A mountain of tanks on the other hand is already some kind of eldritch horror or technological grey-goo terror that has to have every particle destroyed)

This needs to be released as an online game and singleplayer gamewhere you can control the units. Kills as a common unit can gain you tickets and tickets let you play as the stronger units when they spawn. Marbles are still implemented and still crazy rolls and AI takes over unpiloted vehicles. Only vehicles near spawn can be played as because you don't want to use a ticket to control a random tank in their spawn that just dies immediately.

Still more tactical aptitude than was actually shown in WW1. 13,000 troops died in this 15 minute video. In the real battle of the Somme, 20,000 were killed in the first hour, so the level of massacre here is only about 2.5 times what actually happened.

[@Debbiebabe69]

remember this game counts a kill as 1 man, whatever is destroyed. In reality, if a British tank was torched, 8 men would go up in flames with it. If a German tank was cooked, around 22 men would fry inside it.. A cannon too only counts as one kill here, real life WW1 artillery had around a ten man crew. Machinegun and mortar teams too were 3-4 men.

[@TheDemigans]

I would imagine an RTS like this. You have no control over what you spawn. Some “higher up” decides what you get, and then you have to make do with that. You get control over the units and the ability to construct things. Lower end units like riflemen get the best ability to build trenches, sandbags and bunkers while higher tier units are there to explosively disassemble those fortifications. Some limitations need to be in place to prevent tidalwaves of units. Less multipliers for example. Players cannot form super-strategies as easily since they have to be able to handle any units in any combinations they get.
