Hey guys, just wondering if you guys had any suggestions for rounding out a playlist of songs that suit tense combat situations. I'm a pretty avid World of Tanks player and the stock soundtrack has been turned off for years now. It's not uncommon for me and my friends to play our own music while we go around killing tanks or infantry in the war games we like.

A staple of what I listen to is the Blitzkrieg 2 soundtrack for instance:


Let's post some good action music to dive into battle with!

Good hunting.

<o

Edit: My collection thus far. [https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLADFEDE3B94E7AB5F]

I'd suggest giving the Ace Combat 4 [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=deGvkTiRwQE&list=PL23A635021128F21F], 5 [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R-nzzWVhN54&list=PLB5A294C912C49005], Zero [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O1848DY5GqU&list=PLA34334E24E820B75], 6 [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I_SVRM51NhY&list=PL82E38BF253DC9251], and Assault Horizon [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lbapsli9er8&list=PLEF3B4C0F86B1F9C4] soundtracks a listen.

You're bound to find something in there you like.

Do any of you guys know the Youtube channel Phontomen? [https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCNk_MNVZ628tyWmi6uP55dg]
He plays War Thunder and World of Tanks, and his videos have got, well... eclectic musical choices. I've built up quite the library of Russian opera, western themes, Gundam battle music and hard rock to go along with my airplane dogfights.

Oh, very well! :D


The Red Army Choir in particular are remarkably versatile and an absolute feckin' delight. Roll on, tankists!

Valkyria Chronicles has a pretty good soundtrack for that sort of thing.






Here's some other good themes.

I do like both Mercenaries: Playground of Destruction soundtrack (big war orchestra full of epic parts) and Armored Core V soundtrack for a bit of a future feel to it but still keeping it very militaristic.

Splinter Cell Chaos Theory is good for a game with some covert ops as its basicly very strong and tense.

Here's a few that come to mind:

This was unquestionably my favorite part of the soundtrack back when I played WoT
Takes 10-15 seconds to get started, but it's worth it.

I have a few varied bits of war music lying around in my favourites. If you like any of these I can probably find a few similar ones.

Yes, more please! Let's build the library here. ^.^

I'm thinking of editing my OP to include a link to my WoT background music playlist.

Hush you, the occasional bump isn't a great sin. ;)

OT: Just added this one personally:


Also watch that movie if you are fascinated by the Eastern Front.

All righty then though sorry if some of these aren't to your tastes. Since the Red Army seems to be a trend here,
I do quite like some of the Modern Warfare series' music,
a lot of Fire Emblem,
and what is one of one of my favourite versions of the Fire Emblem Theme.

I've always thought the soundtrack to Call of Duty: Modern Warfare is kind of an overlooked masterpiece. My favourite song by far is from the intro sequence when the president of Whateveristan gets executed:

That one was more of an atmospheric, tension-building piece. But the all-out action tunes are pretty awesome as well:

I love the music to the Dollet mission in Final fantasy VIII:


The whole soundtrack is wonderful in my opinion. Nobuo Uematsu is an amazing composer.
