Hello everyone,

along with the release of today’s patch note, we are glad to announce a free DLC for all the owners of Strategic Command: American Civil War, prepare yourselves for the Franco-Prussian War.

Ever since the release of the Franco-Prussian War campaign in Strategic Command 2’s WWI Breakthrough! expansion, this conflict has become one of the most heavily requested campaigns for Strategic Command 3. Seeing as American Civil War has been designed specifically to cover 19th-century warfare (and was in part inspired by this older campaign), and as a way of saying ‘thank you’ to our loyal fans, we thought that now was the most fitting time to revisit this war.

This is a remastered version of the original Franco-Prussian War campaign released in 2013, incorporating all of the improvements to the game engine over the last ten years while remaining faithful to the original design. Many of these improvements will be obvious: a hex-based map, improved graphics, dynamic movement and a more capable AI opponent!

Enjoy the campaign and let us know what do you think about it.
