Greetings Commanders! As we approach the dog days of summer, we are coming in hot with some updates! Much like the weather, things continue to heat up with brand new content. Let’s talk about some of it, shall we? Everything counts in large amounts It’s midnight, and the unthinkable has happened. Global Thermonuclear War. Maybe you scratched out a victory, but at what cost to humankind? We wanted to highlight even further the sheer devastation actions could cause to the citizens of our shared beautiful blue marble. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/33485137/958fbad55d93db4e9223daee85d14a1ae1a74902.jpg Termin

Commanders! Seth here. I hope everyone had a fantastic Easter and Passover break. Let’s get right to it cause I am as excited as a long tail cat in a room full of rocking chairs.

I have been hinting at some things going on and today I get to let you in on some of these events.

Greetings commanders! First off, we may develop strategy war games, but we wanted to make a statement regarding world events as we deplore the loss of any human life and feel saddened by the events of the Russo-Ukrainian War.

We urge, therefore, for calm and for a swift return to peace and dialogue. - Gellert Keresztes. Seth here and today we are going to talk about some recent additions that have gone into the game.
