A: Gears Tactics takes place 12 years before the first Gears of War game.

Q: What kind of combat system does the game use?
A: Gears Tactics uses a uniquely brutal turn-based tactical combat system.
Q: What is the main threat that the game's characters are facing?
A: The main threat facing the characters in Gears Tactics is the Locust Horde, monstrous creatures who are rising from underground and attacking cities.
Q: Can you play the game online with other players?
A: This game offers a multiplayer feature.
A: More turn based combat instead RTS style like Halo Wars. I would definitely recommend it.
Q: Is this a battle game, story game, or both?
A: It's a battle game but not like you expect. You can't just run out shooting your opponents. You have to choose where on the map they move and who you're trying to kill. You only get a certain amount of tries before it's the other teams turn. It's really not fun if you're used to regular Gears.
