- Grand Tactician is Out Today in Early Access! - 21 August 2020
A Very Special Dispatch, August 21, 2020. Gen'l, The highly anticipated real-time strategy game Grand Tactician: The Civil War (1861-1865) is now released in Early Access on Steam, at the price of 39,99 (EUR/USD), some 10% less than the final release price (44,90 EUR/USD). Also the game's Soundtrack by Wasel and the Weasels is available on Steam - and you may purchase the game and the soundtrack as a bundle for discounted price. Early Access means the game is not yet in its final, intended form. Instead, we want to improve it further before calling it “ready”. By purchasing the Early Access version (for a discounted price), the player can already play the game, but for a more complete and polished experience, it is recommended to wait for the full release. If you’re marching with us with the Early Access release, the going will not be smooth and there will be many hardships along the wa…

- First Grand Tactician features revealed - 1 October 2017
http://downloads.thesevenyearswar.com/Images/Logo_2b.png Work on the Successor to The Seven Years War (1756-1763), Grand Tactician, has progressed far enough to let us start revealing some of the features the game will offer. We have been focusing on the battle layer for now, improving on the design of The Seven Years War's battles in many ways. Although all these features are universal for 17th - 19th century battle simulation, we are also getting closer to revealing the historical setting of the first title. Grand Tactician will feature, among other things: - hundreds of units per battle, forming up armies of historical size and composition - possibility for duration of multiple days per battle - pre-battle deployment phase as well as redeploying and resupplying after each day, according to dynamically calculated deployment zones - seasons and dynamic weather that can now change even…

- Successor to The Seven Years War (1756-1763) announced! - 1 May 2017
http://downloads.thesevenyearswar.com/Images/Logo_2b.png The battlefields of the seven years war may have seemed a bit quiet for some time, and now I am happy to tell you why: Work on a successor to The Seven Years War (1756-1763) has started! I have teamed up with Ilja Varha and Peter Lebek, both of who helped me with The Seven Years project after its release. Our new project is called Grand Tactician, and it's designed to be a series of strategy games, dedicated in bringing to life conflicts from our favorite period in history of war: 17-19th centuries, the era of line warfare. Instead of just a step forward to create a sequel to TSYW, we are going for a full leap, switching to a new engine and improving on the design considerably. At this point I would like to thank all the players of The Seven Years War (1756-1763) for the feedback you have given me. It has been carefully read and t…

- Britannia Rule the Waves! - 20 November 2016
Year 1759 became known in Britain as “annus mirabilis”, the year of miracle. The miracle itself was man made, achieved by the British navy on this date! Britannia Rule the Waves! Fighting between the British and the French had been ongoing since 1754, and war was officially declared in 1756 when French went to war against their old ally, Prussia, now allied with Great Britain and Hanover. For the British, the Seven Years War main effort was in the colonies, but the French focus was continental. As the war went on, the British used their naval superiority, capturing Louisbourg and raiding the French coast in 1758. This was a disgrace to the French, and to turn the tide, French foreign minister Duc de Choiseul created a grand plan to knock the British out of the war by invading the British Isles themselves, with a force of no less than 100.000 soldiers! The French navy was to overcome or…

- The Battle of Güstow - 18 November 2016
This date in 1758 saw another small scale combat of the Pomeranian War, in town of Güstow, between Swedish forces under general von Lingen and Prussian detachment from the army of general von Manteuffel. By then the Swedish campaign, started in spring 1757, was already showing signs of turning into another disappointment. The Invasion of Prussian Pomerania During mid-1750s, The power of the Riksdag (Swedish parliament of estates) was being undermined by the Queen of Sweden, Louisa Ulrika. The new king Adolf Frederick was kept under control by the Hats party, but the cunning queen had plans to restore absolute monarchy in Sweden. The attempted coup was revealed in June 22nd 1756 and this tightened the political grip of the Hats party, now under Axel von Fersen. With the gained momentum, the Hats were free to steer Sweden to their liking, even more than ever. When the Seven Years’ War bro…
