Wars and Battles might take over your iPad this November with turn-based historical battles

There's an image of Wars and Battles in which a hex-based battlefield overflows from within an iPad, spilling out of its frame.

It seems fitting with what developer Battle Factory is trying to achieve with Wars and Battles, and that is, to take over your tablet gaming with turn-based historical battles.

Wars and Battles seems to offer a little bit more than what your average strategy game does.

Not only is it intricate and sophisticated, with hundreds of different units, several scenarios, and lots of different terrain types to fight over. It's also a long-term project that will span many, many historical wars.

When it launches in November, Wars and Battles will come with the Battle of Normandy 1944. Just one battle, but it comes with 30 scenarios.

That's enough for one strategy game by itself, probably.

But Battle Factory is planning on bringing out a new battle every two months, including: Austerlitz 1805, Gettysburg 1863, Kharkov 1943, Market Garden 1944, The Korean War 1950-51, and October War 1973.

Of course, you won't get them all for one price, but it's a hell of an effort.

On top of that, the game supports asynchronous multiplayer (local and online). Plus, this multiplayer will be cross-platform across Windows, Mac, Android and smartphone versions when they arrive soon after the initial iPad release.

If you're into detailed historical strategy games then it seems that Wars and Battles really is capable of taking over your iPad, as that image illustrates.
