Ironclad is a free online game started as a hobby project started 5 months ago built on the Darkplaces (quake) engine. It has since developed into a free indie game. One of our major goals for Ironclad is to create a unique, but simple style gameplay. We do not wish to confuse the player with a plethora of complex features.
The game puts you in the driver seat of a iron war-machine to fight it out among others on line.
It is played with a combination of RTS camera perspective, WSAD driving, and Point 'n Click aiming. This creates a fun, and unique style of game, which anyone can jump in and enjoy.
Here are a few key gameplay elements of Ironclad.
But why not show you how the game works by a video?
Currently much of the coding work has been completed and the tank models have been dove into. The M48 seen above is the first tank in game, however, more are to come soon. Our main development team is very small consisting of "Titus" and "Xoliul" modelling the tanks, and myself coding.
We are seeking talented artists:

Is this mod dead?

Nope, working on an update in the coming month.
If it's a tank game, why is it called ironclad?
Iron clad refers to tanks back in WW11 I think
One definition of Ironclad is steam power warships yes.
Another can simply mean "sheathed in iron plates for protection"
