I have put a lot of time in this game. It is horribly unbalanced. It quickly becomes a "meta build only" game where people purposefully avoid unlocking content to help their RNG drops.

You know those phone games where you are a blob and roll around eating stuff to get bigger? Think of that.. but instead of a blob you are a castle, on wheels.. or on feet.. And instead of just eating things to get bigger you are using mechanical arms with a mallet to smash other castles up, or you are shooting them with cannons, or you have barracks...
