''War of the Human Tanks'' is a self-described story-driven strategy game where you play the role of the recently unfrozen Lieutenant Shoutaro Daihon'ei, captain of the 4th Armored Corps. You are tasked with assembling and leading an army of appropriately named Human Tanks against the Kingdom of Japon to turn around the war in favour of your own faction, the Empire of Japon, while avoiding pitfalls and plots along the way.
