Only 2 days to go until the release on April 30th!

Instead of the usual unit previews, today's countdown video provides a quick demonstration on how heavily dug-in positions can be destroyed. Due to the supply system in Order of Battle, even the strongest defense will collapse if it is enveloped and cut off from supply!

Is it possible to play turns simultaneously?

That was some nice action and you barely took any losses from it

No, it's classic IgoUgo. These videos may look a bit confusing cos the turns are only shown as a short fade and the actions are played in rapid succession. We used the MP replay system to achieve this, where you can replay actions as quickly as you can click the "next action" button. Since the animations don't freeze the gameplay or player input, the result looks almost like RTS combat.
