Opponents appear as boats, jet or helicopters from the sides of the screen. Next to clicking or tapping, it is also possible to click/tap and hold, and release when the ship needs to fire. There is an unlimited amount of ammo, but when the ship fires too quickly it takes some time to recharge, designated through icons of weapon chambers next to the ship. The firing is done very fast, launching multiple missiles one after another. As it takes some for the missiles to travel there, a prediction needs to be made where the opponent will move. The ship is initially equipped with missiles and targeting is done by clicking or touching the desired spot. The focus in entirely on the fighting aspect, targeting opponents in the water or in the air, and intercepting torpedoes and air missiles. The players exercises no control over the boat, similar to a rail shooter, as it moves by itself through static, or vertically or horizontally scrolling environments. The game consists of different missions where a warship needs to take out pirate ships, escort other boats or defend positions. It has a fleet of warships and the player assumes the role of Commander Kelly, taking control of a ship. It is set in a near future where the open seas are controlled by the Allied Nations, an organization that patrols international waters with offensive means to engage anyone who attempts to plunder or disrupt vital trade routes. Not an American user? Description Battle Group is a top-down naval shooter inspired by the gameplay of 1942 and Missile Command.
