Directional Miners
Place current 3×3 Miners on visible number fields. Their structural output sockets make the first Belt hand-off readable.
Systems // current playtest
The complete Math Wars machine.
One readable combat loop sits on top of a deep factory. Numbers are mined, transformed, packed, powered, routed, stored, and spent as real defense Ammo.
Production spine
An answer only counts when your factory can keep making it.
The first chain teaches 3 + 4 = 7. Later targets ask you to extend, reroute, buffer, and rebuild the line while wave pressure keeps moving.
MATH factories
Feed two number inputs into a configured operator. Result and remainder leave through dedicated output ports.
AMMO packer
Only a processed value matching the current wave becomes an Ammo Box. Raw and incorrect numbers leave through reject.
PWR network
Number-fueled POWER, batteries, narrow lines, and the passive Collector supply keep demanding machines online.
TEC, KIT, and DEF
Mine advanced resources, refine upgrades, produce DEF, and deliver build stock back to the Collector before expanding defense.
Factory automation
Storage, SORT, Splitters, logic, memory, counters, delays, Control Lines, PHYS, and LIGHT extend the late factory.
Readable under pressure
The Belt network is your battle plan.
Four transport families scale from 1× through 4×. Directional ports, fair side docks, crossings, splitters, bridges, and research-extended underground runs keep dense layouts legible.

Defense roster
Four tower roles, all fed by the same math.
Every tower needs loaded Ammo Boxes. New roles add tactical options without bypassing the production line that makes the defense possible.
Laser Gun
Fast, direct single-target fire. Available from the start and reliable against early waves and runners.
Rail Gun
A heavy kinetic shot with splash damage for attackers that bunch together.
Hex Field
A control field that slows and briefly interrupts enemies near the defense line.
Octagon Relay
Marks targets and boosts nearby DEF towers, turning placement into a support puzzle.
Powered gates
LIGHT Gates only block and damage while fully supplied, so a brownout can open the route.
Collector
The central objective, three-input intake, passive PWR source, and stock ledger at the heart of the run.
Enemy pressure
Prep. Impact. Rebuild.
Each wave exposes a different weakness: production speed, Belt capacity, targeting, power, placement, or the simple fact that the next Ammo value changed.
Readable opening
The first wave waits for a loaded Laser Gun. The complete 3 + 4 → 7 → AMMO chain is visible before combat begins.
Mixed attackers
Runners, tanks, splitters, shielded units, support enemies, and bosses change target priorities and timing.
Exact Ammo
The required target changes across waves. Existing stock does not replace a factory that can make the next answer.
Visible consequences
Core health, enemy pressure, loaded towers, firing, impacts, wave clears, and boss moments stay tied to authoritative state.
Built to keep
A guided run first. A real factory underneath.
