Finishing Kaliningrad mapLast month, we showed the Kaliningrad map as a little teaser.

Though it wasn't playable before, we're now sitting down to bring it up to the same level as the rest of our maps.

June progress in Systemic War

Expanding grandstrategy layer with Military & Civilian factoriesDuring June, we expanded our production mechanics, such as the connection between civil and military factories. For example, each of these "strategic resources" for military production has its own production chain originating from the civil one. At the very bottom, you can see "institute" points which also correspond to these four resource colors, and they will be pinned to produced equipment for strong production bonuses. The brown points on the right are "factories" for specific armament groups-they "assemble" a given piece of e

Silicon Valley vs Suzhou: Designing the modern tech war in a Systemic War

While the Systemic WAR demo focused on Central and Eastern Europe, the full version of the game will cover the entire world between 2008 and 2025. The main actors during this period are the USA (a declining hegemon) and China (a rising superpower).Through a series of regular posts, we want to share our take on the US-China rivalry. In turn, we want you to let us know in the comments how we should capture this conflict in the game mechanics, specifically within the Grand Strategy layer.We are kicking things off with tech. While in 2008 China mostly copied Western solutions, by 2025 they have be

New battlefields, little by little, take shape in Systemic War

In the XXI century conflict zone, understanding the battlefield is crucial to success. That’s why lately we’ve upgraded the method of bringing battlefields to life. By utilizing maps like OpenStreetMap already available in the public domain, we procedurally create fields of battle that our designers later enhance. Ultimately, this will give you even more opportunities to test your tactical skills.Stay tuned for more updates on our end!

User interface in Systemic War is also getting a BIG overhaul

After we showed the new map design a few days ago, now’s the time for the overhauled user interface. As you can see, the UI in Systemic War has undergone significant changes. For example, the color scheme shifted from flat grey to graded celadon green. We also replaced small icons with large tiles.Changes go deeper. While selected elements now clearly distinguish themselves from the background, we reduced some contours and frames in numbers. Now, data crucial to the gameplay will be shown in the form of an infographic. Finally, the navigation in the main menu will now become simplified and mor

New map design is here

OK, we wrote some time ago that the features present in the upcoming demo will slowly reveal themselves. Well, here’s the first one – our new Grand Strategy map. For now, the view is set only from a distance, but you can already see some huge changes. The new map design shows terrain features, and it has a more “military” color scheme. Finally, country borders are drawn with much more detail and smoothly complement the color design.We added the map from the previous demo to further accentuate the difference. More fresh stuff coming soon Well, what do you think about the new design?

More countries, more possibilities

During recent discussions on our various forums, we have discovered that many of you have a thing or two to say about countries that should be selectable in Systemic War. So let’s play a little game — which countries would be the most interesting to play in the full version of the game? If you could choose, let’s say, at least 6 (random number). Let’s see which countries get the most votes. :) Attention: This is not a contest, so the outcome of the final vote will not be binding for our dev team (although it will most certainly be heard ;)).

Weapons of mass production

We’re currently working on military production in Systemic War. As always, we're thrilled to hear your feedback. What feature would you add to military production that you find desperately lacking in the other strategic games on the market?

Tanks or public sentiment?

Working on the economic and social aspects of the upcoming demo. Which brings us to the centuries-old question – where is the fine line between a military and a well-being state while the country is under external threat?

Close Air Support incoming

Recently, we discussed the role of close air support during RTS battles in Systemic War. Out of curiosity, how would you like that aspect of the game to work? Do you have any favorite solutions from other titles?
