New scenarios + QOL changes

Dev Update.

New scenarios:

Two new scenarios have been added with this update, both variations of the end of the UK campaign.

  • Wolfsburg in the Pact tab allows you to to play the scenario from the Soviet point of view with a slightly reduced force albeit of higher quality.

  • Holding on (US) in the NATO tab keeps the Soviets as they are in the campaign but will see the player attempting the task with a US force instead.

QOL tweaks:

  • Some of the fonts have been changed to improve readability at higher resolutions.

  • Several small typo's in briefings have been fixed.

  • Vehicle counters will now kick up a little dust when they move.

  • A guide with some useful tips was added to the Community page.

As we approach the end of CWB's first week on Steam I wanted to thank you all again for your support and feedback. My main focus now will be on the upcoming Middle East scenarios, no ETA yet as some of the situations I want to cover are not widely written about. If you are having fun in CWB then do spread the word or share your victories with others on the community page.
