Building NFT Tanks on the Blockchain With Age of Tanks

Age of Tanks
Blockchain gaming keeps improving by the day and the latest project to wave this flag of improvement is the Age of Tanks game. Age of Tanks, which is the flagship project of Defination studio, a gaming startup, is a 3D strategy card game that is turn-based and set in an immersive Metaverse. In this game, players can assemble their preferred tanks and teams, outwit their opponents, and run the battlefield. 

This game is inspired by other successful blockchain games like Axie Infinity and Hearthstone. Following in the footsteps of these games (and to be honest, doing even more), Age of Tanks (AOT) combines a fun CCG PVE gaming experience with competitive PVP game mode and social gameplay. Its ecosystem is completely decentralized and the in-game assets are powered with Decentralized Finance (DeFi) elements. 

AOT is a fun game with huge complexity that is designed to attract players from two worlds, the blockchain where players actions determine how the game develops and the pure gaming and competitive aspect where players find the best ways, the best teams and being tops on the Leaderboard to win tournaments. Defination studio the developers built the AOT game on the Binance Smart Chain and this enables advanced blockchain and in-game DeFi features. 

Vision & Mission 

Vision 

The Age of Tanks game is built by gamers for gamers. The developers believe that games are an important aspect of human life and that they can discover hidden abilities in people and society at large. The creators of the game are aspiring to create a gaming environment that will have a positive influence on the lives of people and that this influence would last by way of fostering teamwork, cultivating leadership and pushing creative minds. 

Mission 

The mission of Age of Tanks is to build a game that attracts the best of both worlds. A game that attracts and empowers gamers with economic opportunities in the blockchain space where they can affect the development of the game and pure gamers who are focused on the competitive aspect of the game by finding the best possible strategies and teams to win the biggest rewards in the game. 

Gameplay Overview 

Players of AOT earn XP which increases their champion level, which in turn helps them advance to different stages in their campaigns. This is possible because AOT has a dynamic campaign progression and levelling system which rewards players as they advance through the game. By progressing through the dynamic campaign and leveling system, gamers will earn $AOT tokens.

The game has a play-to-earn model and players can benefit from this model by being CHAMPIONS. Champions are scavenging masters and they modify old tech and use them in constructing weapons or other assets like armors. Champions who gather enough parts to form fleets of tanks can test and hone their skills against other champions in the arena. For every part a gamer scavenges, there are different skills available for them. Games have the liberty to sell their parts or decide to assemble four of these parts and form a super tank that they can use for conquests. After these parts are assembled, they will be minted into NFTs and they can be traded in open NFT marketplaces. 

As players progress through AOT missions, they will earn Brodium which is a crucial element in redeeming Warchests which drop Tank parts that are needed to assemble and mint a Tank.

$A.O.T Token

Built on the Binance Smart Chain, $AOT is the native utility currency of the Age of Tanks ecosystem. The main aim of creating the $AOT tokens is to work out an in-game payment system between gamers that is both fair and transparent. 

To earn the $AOT tokens, gamers have to win PVP battles, achieve seasonal top-ranking, own $AOT Refiners and sell Tank NFTs or parts of it in the in-game marketplace. 

$AOT can be used for: 

  • Making purchases on the in-game marketplace 
  • Forging parts and minting Tank NFTs
    • Staking and players can earn staking rewards through this, as a certain percentage of the game revenue is given out as rewards
      • Rewarding gamers who actively participate in the game's ecosystem
        • Governance: The in-game token empowers gamers with the ability to make key decisions that affect the direction of the ecosystem. This is based on the voting of the token holders which depends on how much of the token they are holding. Voters will also be rewarded to encourage them to participate in voting.
