Throw Weight: Fleet Doctrine

Every missile is a decision.
Throw Weight is a space strategy game built on hard science fiction. No energy shields, no laser beams: your ships carry missiles, defensive guns and electronic warfare. Every round they fire comes out of a magazine that will run dry. Win the exchange, or run out of answers.
Real-time fleet battles
Command fleets of corvettes through dreadnoughts in real-time battles. When fleets meet on the galactic map, jump into battle where formations matter. Watch your fleet launch volleys of guided missiles toward the enemy fleet where they are meet by a wall of defense: point-defense cannons, counter-missiles, jammers and decoys.
Finite magazines: Rapid fire everything early or hold back for an extended engagement.

Layered missile defense: Jamming first, then decoys, followed by counter-missiles reaching out, and last point-defense guns finish what gets through.

Electronic warfare: Jam enemy seekers, lure missiles onto decoys and cut through with ECCM. Advanced efforts can even disguise ships at range!

Fleet doctrine: Set engagement range, fire rate, target priority and retreat thresholds, then let your captains execute.

Formations: Line, wedge, wall and screen, in tight or loose spacing, or design your own in the formation editor.

AI personalities: Play against AI designed after various admirals from history.

Split-screen command: Supports both hotseat and online multiplayer.

A war beyond the battlefield
Every battle is one move in a larger campaign. Expand across a procedurally generated galaxy, build ships at your shipyards, send intelligence missions into the fog of war and decide where to commit your fleets.
Know the enemy's mind
Face 10 unique AI commanders, each with their own doctrine and personality. Some raid undefended systems, some build overwhelming fleets before they strike, some lean on jammers and decoys. Read a commander's dossier before the battle and plan accordingly.
