About Counterblow: Earth War: Turn-Based Artillery on Destructible Earth
Counterblow: Earth War is a turn-based artillery game where Special Forces and Terrorists square off across destructible terrain. Each side fields three soldiers, and the action plays out across five randomly selected maps. A 30-second turn timer keeps every round tight, and a CS-style shop between rounds lets both sides spend earned money on weapons and armor. Whether facing the computer or a friend sharing one screen, the match structure is clean: win two rounds to claim victory.
How to Play Counterblow: Earth War: Destroy All Enemy Soldiers
The objective is straightforward — wipe out every enemy soldier before they eliminate yours. Rounds are won by eliminating the opposing team, and the first side to win two rounds takes the match.
Movement and Combat
Walk your soldier into position, then aim and charge a shot before releasing to fire. Pick a weapon from the list at the bottom of the screen using the mouse. Touch devices use on-screen buttons for all of these actions.
Economy Between Rounds
Dealing damage and scoring kills earns money. Between rounds, head to the shop to spend that money on weapons and armor, building up your squad's firepower and survivability for the next engagement.
