Red Epic: War of Resistance

Four-Character Verse · An Offering at the Mausoleum of the Yellow Emperor (Excerpt)

Through changing times, our nation has endured countless trials and tribulations.

Across thousands of years, a mighty neighbor has cast aside all virtue.

Ryukyu and Taiwan were lost; the lands of Korea lie in ruins.

Across Liaohai, Yan, and Ji, how many traitors have arisen!

If we surrender our lands to the enemy, will his greed ever be satisfied?

He holds the whip, while we endure the shame of slavery and humiliation.

O glorious ancestor, a mighty hero of your age!

You fought valiantly at Zhuolu and brought peace to the realm.

How could your descendants have become so bereft of courage?

Shall we stand by and watch our great nation fall into ruin?

Though we may be unworthy of our forebears, we rise with swords in hand.

Across ten thousand miles of treacherous roads, we pledge our lives to our country.

— Chairman Mao

About the Game

The Steel and Blood Legend of the North China Plain

Based on the real history of the Central Hebei Anti-Mop-up Campaigns during the War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression, this game takes you back to an epic era. Experience the fierce struggle between behind-enemy-lines forces and the well-equipped imperial forces and their proxies.

Rather than focusing on a single battle, the game distills the reality of the behind-enemy-lines war in Central Hebei. From defending villages and ambushing in crop fields to sabotaging railways, clearing outposts, and breaking blockades, it recreates the most authentic and intense guerrilla tactics of the war. Weave through the sorghum fields and tactical trenches, break multi-pronged encirclements with flexible strategies, and join countless unsung heroes to write a legendary chapter on this blood-soaked soil!

Gameplay Features

Innovative TD + RTS Gameplay

A war-themed strategy game that seamlessly fuses classic Tower Defense with Real-Time Strategy (RTS). While retaining classic path building and unit upgrades, the game introduces realistic bidirectional combat, unit casualties, and real-time mobility. Facing dynamic enemy advances and heavy firepower suppression, you must flexibly reposition mobile troops and adjust defensive lines to claim victory in the fog of war.

Grant Unique Unit Titles

The game currently features five unit types. Each unit type has its own attributes and growth tree, and can later be granted unique titles that unlock special abilities.

Buildings also have different upgrade paths. You may train a squad into an elite assault force, or refine them into calm, lethal sharpshooters to eliminate high-value targets.

Choose Tactical Doctrines

The game offers around ten core tactical doctrines. These doctrines can be learned and developed through campaign progress, and each one significantly changes your strategic options and overall playstyle.

Ignite the National Spirit

Red Epic features an original “National Spirit” system, serving as the main progression line throughout the campaign.

Heroes who fall in battle are not forgotten. Their sacrifice becomes part of a greater cause, strengthening the spirit that carries the Red Army forward. The strength of the Red Army does not come from superior weapons, but from the will and sacrifice of countless revolutionary predecessors.

Final Words

Every inch of the North China Plain was soaked with the blood of martyrs; every gunshot echoing through the tall crops bore the unyielding voice of a nation. Red Epic: Resistance is dedicated to all the heroes and unsung martyrs who fought bravely to defend their homeland. Where the flag points, a single spark can start a prairie fire. Return to those glorious years and build our Wall of Steel with our flesh and blood!
