About the Game

Contract Corps: Lead your Aces is a sci-fi tactical strategy game staged on a holographic war-table. You are not micro-managing hundreds of units, but lead a small team of hero units (your Aces) while issuing high-level commands to the rest of your autonomous army (your Corps). Plot your strategy and watch both armies collide as their turns get executed simultaneously during a purely deterministic, highly intense resolution phase.

Tactical Command

  • Control your Aces: Lead your highly customizable elite squad directly. Your Aces are force multipliers to swing the battlefield in your favour.

  • Cascading Resolve Systems: Victory comes not only from reducing health bars, but also by breaking an enemy unit's resolve. Eliminate an enemy hero and watch the morale hit spiral into a collapse of the entire flank.

Strategic Operations

  • Indirectly Command your Corps: Avoid endless micro-management. Instead, you issue high-level commands such as "Hold that zone" or "Assassinate that unit" to change AI priorities.

  • Chained Missions with Consequences: Execute early surgical skirmishes to destroy enemy power grids or rescue prisoners to strip away enemy defenses and morale before the massive final assault on the base.

The War Room

  • Unit Loadout & Progression: Grow your individual Aces via deep skill trees and assign customizable unit loadouts to both your elite squad and the rest of your Corps.

  • Reactive Tabletop Diorama: Command the battlefield from the safety of your control room. The holographic presentation provides rich tactical feedback and showcases the permanent impact of fire and explosions on the terrain.
