Fight the naval war between furious armies across the boundless waters of the post-apocalyptic world. Pump the ever-so-precious black gold by oil rigs, capture platforms and destroy the enemy in the sea and in the air. Be ingenious to unlock super technologies and quick to send your squads straight into the heat of the battle!
The global war for oil begins on January 25, 2012. Show all your strategic talent to keep your platforms defended on Windows, Linux and Mac OS X and join up the Oil Rush battle! Meanwhile 0.91 beta build is available for all pre-order users.
