There was a similar game for DOS at around the same time called "Tank Wars", except that one was written for VGA 320x200x256 graphics. I wonder how many people remember it.

I played a tank game 'Wild Metal Country' that my boys and I loved. It was a pre-release we got with another game. I never saw it release though.
I do! Loved it. My favorite tactic was dropping a dirt bomb and watching my enemies nuke themselves.
I remember that one, but back in those days i played the crap out of Tunneler. https://dosgames.com/game/tunneler
Oh man, memories
"Oh crap, he found a tunnel... is that one of mine? It doesn't look like one of mine. Why's he shooting down the tunnel? ... :( it was one of mine."
Yep, played the crap out of Tank Wars - the AI tank personalities, levels with strong wind, the weapon shop, etc. So good!
I personally loved the isometric 3D version, Genocide: https://archive.org/details/Genocide_1020
There's a full-3d version that is slightly abandoned, but still fun as heck. http://scorched3d.co.uk/
I always preferred Tank Wars over Scorched Earth
Me too!
It had a cheat code, so if you set the power to a certain amount it would shoot through the grass
…
BRB, installing tank wars again. What was the cheat code?
800, but it only worked if you were at 100% health.
