Build an army from cards, place it on the grid and watch it fight. Here is everything you need: the rules, all 13 units, 5 buildings, 15 artifacts, perks and commanders — with the exact numbers from the game.
Every round you get crystals. Spend them on cards in the Armory: units, buildings and artifacts. Tap a card to take it, or reroll the offer for 1 crystal.
Drag a card from your hand onto a free tile. Drop a second copy of the same unit on top of it to merge them: +1 level, up to level 4.
Rows closer to the enemy fight first — put tanks there. Keep long-range shooters in the back. Artifacts go straight onto a unit; buildings buff the tiles around them.
In the Command Center buy an extra slot, defensive turrets or an Orbital Nuke for the coming battle.
Press Start Deployment — the fight is automatic. You can speed it up. Squads that survive the round hit the enemy commander.
Bring the enemy commander from 20 HP to zero. Victories in the Battle Arena give rating and move you through the leagues.
Units are your squads. Copies of the same unit merge into a higher level: at level 2 a squad has twice the HP and damage of level 1, at level 4 — four times. Other stats stay the same. Stats below are for one mech of the squad.

Perks are permanent upgrades outside the battle. Every unit and building has one perk slot, every commander has one more. Perks are unlocked with perk parts from chests and the shop: the first one costs 5 parts, each next one +5 (up to 100). Universal parts can fill the gap. Some perks are given for free at the start or for defeating a commander.
