A build is one published version of the game's files on a branch. Steam assigns a new build ID every time the developer pushes an update, so this list is the update history of the app. The files inside a build (depot manifests) are only readable with an account that owns the game, which SteamRaw does not have yet, so build contents are not shown.

Build 1.2.0 is now live!
20 June 2022 13:55 UTC · Community Announcements · Z.agge
Hey there! Para Bellum - Hold the Line just had a new small update, version 1.2.0! I've received some feedback from the players that the beginning of the campaign is too difficult and it turns new players off the game. I wanted to address this concern by doing a couple of small changes to the balancing of the first couple of campaign missions. The early campaign experience should be more manageable now to new players! That's all for now! Thanks and have a nice summer everyone :)
Aftermath Update!
6 April 2022 10:24 UTC · Community Announcements · Z.agge
Greetings, commanders! After a long while, I've introduced a new update to Para Bellum - Hold the Line titled Aftermath Update! This update aims to improve the aftermath experience of the battles you fight. It comes with two new main features: - Destroyable trees - Mortar Strikes, Missiles, Grenades etc. can now damage and destroy trees. This does not only improve the feel and feedback of your battles, but also changes the battlefield on tactical level as the cover your or the enemy's Units could use, is reduced. - Blood and Gore - Explosions leave behind bloodied corpses that might lose body

Morning, commanders! Para Bellum - Hold the Line Early Access has reached its version 1.5.0. This update comes with a couple of variations of the new Paratrooper Unit! This new Unit's specialty is the ability to be rapidly called anywhere on the map in addition to their exemplary combat skills! The rest of the changelog is as follows: NEW - Paratrooper Units (Grenadier, MG and AT variants) CHANGES - Limit for building Emplacements - set to 3 currently - Make Platoon menu contents scrollable for better experience on wide monitors FIXES - Disable collisions between Emplacement placement tool and
Future update
14 December 2021 09:58 UTC · Community Announcements · Z.agge
How's it going, commanders! I'm taking a little deviation from the regular update schedule to keep you in the loop on what's going on with the game and its Early Access status and what the foreseeable future will hold for the game and for Laukaus Games as a whole. Before going in to anything else, I want to thank each and every one of you, who have bought and played the game or added it to your wishlist for future purchase.

Early Access Update 1.4.0
10 December 2021 08:26 UTC · Community Announcements · Z.agge
Greetings, commanders! Today's update comes with a new support and a couple of smaller fixes. The ability to destroy built Sandbags and especially Emplacements was requested by the players. The new Demolish ability allows you to do exactly that. When you demolish something, a part of the Demolished building's price will be returned to you in a Supply Crate spawned on the demolished building's position. This Supply Crate will then need to be collected by any of your Units. There will be another update hopefully next week that will include a couple of new Units. Here's a little teaser for that:
Early Access Update 1.3.0
3 December 2021 07:45 UTC · Community Announcements · Z.agge
Hey there, commanders! Another week of Early Access has passed and it's time for another update. The main feature of update 1.3.0 is Helicopter Overwatch Support, as seen here. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tuq_g-fXA0w Helicopter Overwatch Support will loiter around your area of designation while suppressing and destroying any Infantry Units it can see. As usual, there's a couple of more minor additions with the update as well. The full changelog is as follows: NEW - Helicopter Overwatch Support - Contextual messages for building Sandbags and Emplacements CHANGES - Changes to collision Layer
Early Access Update 1.2.2 released!
30 November 2021 09:01 UTC · Community Announcements · Z.agge
Hey there, commanders! I'm up at it again with another non-scheduled update. The purpose for this update was to fix one glaring issue with GMG Emplacements, where the Emplacement was still able to shoot even though the gunner is killed. Known issue: this version still has the old version number 1.2.1 shown in the Main Menu. I will fix this for the next scheduled update, hopefully up later this week. Over and out!
Early Access Update 1.2.1
29 November 2021 09:31 UTC · Community Announcements · Z.agge
Hello there, commanders! Quick update outside of my regular update schedule. Changelog as follows: NEW - Hit Chance Indicator - if you have Unit(s) selected and hover your mouse over an enemy, a number will show up that shows the chance of the selected Unit(s) to hit that enemy. This feature is still work in progress and implemented for testing and receiving feedback. Subject to change. FIXES - Fix for randomly dropping player Morale when using GMG Emplacement - Potential fix for Achievements not tracking properly That's all, got you later, commanders!
Early Access Update 1.2.0
26 November 2021 08:54 UTC · Community Announcements · Z.agge
Greetings, commanders! Today's update will bring Para Bellum - Hold the Line up to version Early Access 1.2.0. The most notable change in this update is the GMG Emplacement. This new Support, while costly, will provide you with superior firepower of a Grenade Machine Gun (or Automatic Grenade Launcher, semantics!) and cover of a wooden pillbox. Here's a short video to show how it works: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5dn8YWx33KA And here's the rest of the update changelog: NEW - GMG Emplacement Support - Requirements for Stars shown in the pause menu of Campaign missions FIXES - Details butto

You can then quickly select these groups by pressing the corresponding number. - Unit selection sound - You now hear a short sound prompt when you select Units. FIXES - Dead Units will no longer
