Today we are pleased to announce the release of Command: Modern Operations – Tides of War, a new campaign DLC available now.
Set in the tense waters of the South China Sea, Tides of War places players in command of ASEAN forces as a regional crisis escalates toward open conflict. What begins as a multinational military exercise quickly deteriorates when Chinese maritime militia and coast guard vessels interfere with operations, creating the conditions for a broader confrontation across the theater.
The campaign includes six tightly focused scenarios, each representing up to 24 hours of operations. Players will navigate a structured escalation ladder, moving from gray-zone incidents and non-kinetic encounters to submarine interdiction, precision strikes, and ultimately large-scale air and naval engagements.
A key feature of Tides of War is its Continuous Loss System, where losses and damage persist between scenarios. Decisions made early in the campaign can have significant consequences later, making force preservation and operational planning critical.
Rather than focusing on individual platforms, the campaign emphasizes escalation management, joint operations, and long-term force preservation, offering Command players an operational perspective on crisis escalation in one of the world’s most sensitive maritime regions.
Tides of War is available now and requires the base game Command: Modern Operations to play.
