### Air Strike
|
||||
|
||||
Mark a space anywhere on the board. In the next turn, the player must roll a 6+ for the air strike to hit. On the following turn, it's a 5+, and then 4+, and so on. An air strike is never called on a roll of a 1.
|
||||
|
||||
When an air strike is carried out, the marked space is hit with an AT round with a strength of 6. Roll a die to determine the direction of the blast (1 is north, 2 is northeast, and so on). Then roll a die to determine the distance of the blast (1 is 1 space, 2 is 2 spaces, and so on). Each of those spaces are also hit with an AT round with a strength of 6.

#### Missions
|
||||
|
||||
Playing to destroy your enemy is only one way to play Tank Commander. Missions can be created to add objectives to the game. Some examples of missions include:
|
||||
|
||||
- **Capture Objectives:** Use infantry to capture 1, 2 or 3 spaces on the board
|
||||
- **Breakthrough:** Move a tank to the other side of the board to win. One player is the attacker, the other is the defender.
|
||||
- **Destroy Target:** Destroy a specific target on the board. The target can be a building, a tank, or an infantry unit.
|
||||
|
||||
#### More Questionable Ideas
|
||||
|
||||
- **Weather:** Roll a die at the beginning of each turn. On a 1, a storm hits. All tanks have -1 accuracy, and all infantry have -1 movement.
|
||||
- **Campaign Progressions**: Players can keep track of their tanks and crew from battle to battle. Crew members can gain experience, and tanks can be upgraded with new equipment.
|
||||
- **Hover Tanks, Walkers, etc.**: Add new units to the game with different movement and armor values.
