Hello Generals!
The first year of the British Campaign has been released in v0.4.25.
We want to introduce the mechanics of the British Campaign and collect your feedback. More balancing and work are needed, but you can try it out and understand the basics of the British Campaign.
Moreover, we have done a huge amount of work to improve the game, mechanics, and balance. The most significant changes are listed below:
