Border Clash

Border Clash is a strategy game where placement decides more than firepower does. You defend a border against an enemy that keeps coming, deploying units to the points along the line that actually matter and leaving the rest thin on purpose. Every unit has an ability of its own, so what you put in front of an advance changes what that advance can do.

Energy is the limit on all of it. Deploying costs, and holding a little back for the moment the pressure lands somewhere unexpected is usually worth more than spending everything on the first wave. Timing turns out to be the real skill here - the same unit, placed the same way, wins or loses on when you commit it.

How to play

Pick a unit and click the point on the border where you want it to stand, then watch how the enemy advance reacts before committing the next one. Each unit brings its own ability, so a line built entirely from one type leaves a gap somewhere. Deployment draws on your energy, and it is a limited pool, so spending everything on the first push leaves you with nothing for the second. Hold the border to win.

Controls

One button does the work. On desktop, click the mouse on the spot where you want a unit to go. On a phone or tablet, touch the target point on the border instead. There is nothing to type and no keyboard shortcuts to learn.
