Introduction

Welcome! Iron Grip: Marauders is a game about being a Marauder Captain, a pirate who travels aboard his airship, fighting battles over gold and other resources while building an army of soldiers and vehicles, researching new technology and sending out smuggling convoys.

There are two forms of gameplay in Marauders. The first is the strategic browser based section of the game, where a captain builds vehicles, trains infantry and researches new tech. This is also where battles are initiated, smuggling convoys are set up, and communication with other captains is managed. The other kind of gameplay is in the 3D battles, where captains control their units in hands-on fights.
