Dear All, Update 3.5 is live. It continues with the introduction of the recently announced gameplay mechanic changes and overall game rebalancing.

Dear All, The following update addresses some major concerns we picked up from your comments after the recent major update.

- Bug Fix Update - 4 October 2022
First, we deeply apologize to you for the long delay in releasing the following fixes. As we noted in the past, a large part of our core programmer team has been outsourced to Ukraine early in the project. Brutal Russian invasion has resulted in some of our key team members having to depart their homes and seek safety. We are very happy to share that all of our partners on this project and their families managed to safely return to their homes in Ukraine early in the summer. Brave defense of their homeland by Ukraine Armed Forces has allowed our friends to pick up on work assignments when the situation at least partially stabilized in their area. We are very grateful for your patience and hope you can understand those extraordinary circumstances that delayed our work. Regarding the update: Due to deep code changes in some game systems, this update will only work on a new game. The most…

- War Room models modern COIN operations, but it's got some work to do to capture the 'hearts and minds' of wargamers - 15 December 2020
Modern warfare is complicated. Not in the logistical and political sense like all wars are, but in a more intellectual sense -- without rival states facing each other like in the Napoleonic and World Wars or an ideological conflict like the Cold War and the Crusades, the landscape is steeped in shades of grey. Some of the biggest challenges facing western militaries over the past decade has arguably stemmed from the threat of insurgency. It's not a new concept - it's been an integral part of most major conflicts of the 21st century, but it's only recently that's its dominated the global defence agenda in such a focused way, in no small part due to American and NATP operations in the Middle-East post 9/11. It's proven an alluring subject matter in the war game world as well: insurgency and counter-insurgency have been featured in games from Call of Duty and Squad to Ndemic's Rebel Inc. a…
