  • New gameplay modes! - 24 February 2017

    Added two new gameplay modes. Adrenaline: Every rebel killed adds +1 to damage for all union units. Fast gameplay and frantic action! Resets every turn. No Leaderboards with this mode. Capture the General: Destroy the rebel general who has 135HP and does +5 extra damage. Charging towards him changes the game and adds many intense moments! This mode has no Leaderboards so choose the Classic mode to compete for the Golden General! Improvements: Added the option "Mouse scrolling" to disable any mouse based map scrolling for users with rare input problems. Thank you geoffrey.allwood for describing the map scrolling problem on your Lenovo Y50, hopefully you can play the game now!

  • Update 1.0.3 - 13 February 2017

    Improvements: Leaderboards now show your current score. Updated volume slider. If you are one of those users affected by not getting achievements, then this update might help. Pressing continue after a battle also sends out requests to the Steam servers to unlock achievements. So far I am unable to reproduce this glitch. All the feedback in the forums regarding this issue is much appreciated. We are reading and considering all the suggestions to the game. But keep in mind we have a very small budget and every improvement is not possible at this time. Thank you all for playing!

  • Update 1.0.1 - 10 February 2017

    Fixes: In "Bermuda Hundred", the confederates could wait endlessly until reinforcements arrive. Achievements were locked until you finished a level. Golden General was only rewarded to the top player of the leaderboards. Now all top 10 players will destroy and heal with a Golden commander unit. Thank you PATHFINDER-SIX, Lollipop and Misanthropic Deathwish for finding and describing the problems in the forums! We are eternally grateful!
