Expanding grandstrategy layer with Military & Civilian factories During 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…
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 sho…
Hello Commanders! In Systemic WAR , we're adding multiplayer, new gameplay features… but we're also significantly improving the graphics.

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 skil…
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…
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 an…
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. :)…
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?
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?
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?
Four design meetings a week, combined with massive work done in the background – that’s our current tempo and we don’t plan to slow down anytime soon. The new Systemic War demo will be more than just an update, it will be a full-on upgrade! As we increase the number of features, you will quickly discover that the previous demo was simply a foretaste of things to come. Look out for more updates…
Aaaand here we have it – the first detail about the air power in the upcoming updated demo version. The acronym of the day is FAOR (Flight Area of Responsibility). One of the defensive missions you’ll be able to perform in Systemic War with your flight units is a Combat Air Patrol that uses the mentioned FAOR of each flight unit, instead of tying the formation to pre-arranged air zones. Details…
