Auto Tanks

Auto Tanks - Play Online

Tower defense meets idle warfare. Auto Tanks strips out the busywork—just deploy units, watch them blast, collect the loot. Developed by Old Lord Games, this is pure tactical mayhem. No downloads. Browser-ready destruction.

How to Play Auto Tanks

Destroy the enemy base. That's it. Your goal is simple: place tanks, let them auto-fire, and watch the opponent's HQ crumble. First base down wins.

Deploy & Dominate

Select tank cards at the bottom. Drop them on your half of the field. Each unit costs Energy—it refills automatically. No manual controls. Tanks drive forward. Shoot on sight. Your job? Smart placement. Mix Light Scouts (fast), Heavy Armor (tanky), and Long-Range Artillery. Right combo = victory.

Rank Up Mid-Battle

Tanks upgrade themselves during combat. Start as regulars. Survive long enough? Promote to General rank. Higher rank = more damage, tougher armor. The longer a tank lives, the deadlier it gets. Farm kills. Stack promotions. Snowball to victory.

Unlock & Upgrade

Earn Gold by blowing up enemies. Spend it in the shop. Unlock dozens of unique tank types—scouts to armored monsters. Boost damage. Strengthen defense. Prep your fleet for harder stages. Progression is endless. More gold = bigger arsenal.

Strategy Tips

Don't spam weak units. Space out deployments. Save energy for heavy hitters when enemy waves stack. Use Support Tanks to buff frontline armor. Watch the energy counter—timing beats spamming. Combine troop types. Light tanks scout. Heavies absorb fire. Artillery rains death from the back.
