Battle Academy 2 Out now!

Post by Surtur »

“The enemy is at the gate. It is a question of life and death.” (Andrei Zhdanov – Soviet Politician)

June 21, 1941 – German troops cross the border in Soviet-occupied Poland and break instantly the Non-Aggression pact between Germany and the USSR. This brutal and massive operation opened a huge new front in Europe. While the initial advance was fast and surprising enough to make the Germans reach the gates of Moscow, the invaders quickly had to deal with a valiant resistance from the Red Army and endure the tough weather and terrain conditions. Soon the Eastern Front became the ruthless and the bloodiest front of the whole war…

In Battle Academy 2, you can join both sides and re-fight some of the key operations that made the east front legendary. Not only this sequel captures the essence of the gameplay of the series that made Battle Academy so funny and accessible but also introduces numerous features for a brand new tactical experience. 4 story-driven campaigns, a random map generator, multiplayer modes with cooperative and versus gameplay, a unique skirmish mode that allows to generate an infinite number of customized scenarios and an enhanced pool of tactical orders are waiting for the most demanding fans of strategy games!

Today we have the pleasure to announce that the game is finally released. In order to celebrate this important milestone, we are offering a $10 discount to the early adopters during the week of the launch! We are also going to offer a free Steam key to anyone who has a copy the game, wherever they bought it from, once the game is available on this digital platform!

I needed this game like I need another piece of chocolate cake............ well sometimes I needed both I suppose.

Yesterday was a wretched day for me though, so I'm buying BA 2 and to hell with my life if it seems like a purchase I couldn't afford right now :)

It's not like I am unsure I will like it eh. But you can't please everyone, although I don't have time for the microscopic portion of wargaming that thinks there is anything wrong with Battle Academy.

The price is correct. $39.99 is the final price with the $10 discount. After the promotion it will cost $49.99.

Yes there are T24/85's and we've done an initial submission to Apple but do not plan this to be the release version so looking for a mid to late October release for BA2 on iPad.

They are seperate games (the challenges wouldn't be compatible anyway) - and in fact BA2 runs on a newer version of the PBEM++ system.

Cheers
