NORTHAG Operation #1 Running the Gauntlet
Hello commanders,
We are back with another WARNO - NORTHAG preview. In today’s post, let’s look at our soon-to-come expansion’s first Operation: Running the Gauntlet.
Let’s go!
[h2]NORTHAG’s Historical Context[/h2]
In the previous DevBlog, highlighting the new massive turn-based Army General campaign Four Days to the Weser, a large Warsaw Pact offensive is aimed at Bremen and sees the East Germans strike through a (still) mobilizing Dutch I Corps around the Lüneburg area. This is one of the two new Army General campaigns (the other one taking place further south around Hanover).
The new Operation takes a closer look at the first (confusing and chaotic) moments for NATO, as a sizable detachment of West German troops finds itself isolated by the communists East of Lüneburg. They were unable to reach the Neetze canal, NATO's main defensive line East of the town on time and are under threat of being surrounded. A cobbled-together Dutch mechanized infantry detachment with some American helicopters in support are dispatched with urgency to relieve the besieged allied troops.
[h2]Running the Gauntlet[/h2]
The Bundeswehr’s Kampfgruppe von Jagow has been cut off by advanced elements of the Nationale Volksarmee’s 20. Motorisierte Schützendivision. A vanguard of reinforcing units of the Dutch I Corps, primarily units from the 42 Tankbataljon with combined mechanized, support, and recon vehicles, plus some American combat helicopters from D Squadron, 1st Cavalry, are on the way as a relief force.
The objective in this Operation is to use whatever forces you have to clear the East German blocking units, including ones trying to outflank you, and then establish a corridor to the besieged West Germans. Additional Dutch reinforcements will bolster your units on the battlefield.
[h2]An Important Link-Up[/h2]
A convoy of allied troops will start moving once the link-up has been made. However, the communists will do their damnest to cut off the corridor and retake the two key Command Zones. As NATO, it is critical to keep in control of these sectors. The reinforcing Dutch companies will bring along even more mechanized infantry, giving you access to powerful Leopard 2A4 tanks, 120mm mortars, and the PRAT missile tank destroyer variant of the YPR-765.
The opposing forces will, in the second stage of the Running the Gauntlet, consist of the Soviet 138th Independent Tank Regiment, which will be rather persistent in closing the trap once again. Next to the already present T-72 tanks, they will bring the capable T-64BV to the fray. The road is the lifeline for the NATO troops. Every vehicle of the Kampfgruppe von Jagow that makes it out will get you a step closer to victory.
[h2]The new WARNO - NORTHAG expansion[/h2] WARNO - NORTHAG is the first major expansion coming to WARNO. World War III hits the North German Plain where the attacking Warsaw Pact needs to overcome the staunch defenses of NATO’s NORTHAG. Under British command, Belgian, Dutch, West German, and American forces battle against the powerful northern formations of the Soviet Group of Forces in Germany, including East German and reinforcing Polish armies. The expansion is planned for later in 2024.

Nemesis: Plateau d'Albion and RP#3 Out Now!
Surprise, commanders!
Glorious news. Not only is the much-anticipated Nemesis: Plateau d'Albion out now, but we have also launched the free Reinforcement Pack #3, featuring the Stoneware map!
Check all the details below.
[h2]Nemesis #2 - Plateau d'Albion[/h2] Nemesis #2 - Plateau d'Albion is a community-voted DLC brought to life by you in the middle of last summer. The mini-expansion features two new divisions and a host of new weapons and units: the crack Soviet VDV troops of 76th Guards Airborne Division and the tenacious French defenders of the 152e Division d’Infanterie.
https://store.steampowered.com/app/2978650/WARNO__Nemesis_2__Plateau_dAlbion
Inspired by the 1980s technothrillers, this Nemesis expansion imagines a daring Warsaw Pact effort to take control of the French silo-based nuclear weapons on Plateau d'Albion in southeastern France. Read more lore background and unit details in this dedicated DevBlog here.
The Warsaw Pact’s 76th Guards Airborne Division and its specially equipped air assault troops have the advantage of surprise, long-range air support, and offensive firepower. So, too, can the NATO’s 152e Division d’Infanterie field enough weaponry, specialized and reservist infantry, and call in air power to mount a spirited defense.
Nemesis: Plateau d'Albion is a community-voted DLC and features two brand-new WARNO Divisions with a host of new units, weapons, vehicles, and more. These Nemesis battlegroups can be taken to war in WARNO’s single-player Skirmish, Ranked, and Online Multiplayer.
So what can you play with, and which new units are featured in Nemesis: Plateau d'Albion?
[h2]French 152e Division d’Infanterie[/h2]
NATO’s French 152e Division d’Infanterie is a reserve division with versatile infantry, heavy air support, and an array of specialized troops and units. With the defense of Base Aérienne 200 being of the utmost importance, RESERVISTE will do the bulk of the fighting, backed by new units such as MARSOUINS naval infantry, heavy-duty GENDARMES DE L’AIR airfield security combat squads, COMMANDOS DE L’AIR special forces, and VIB APCs. Other new units include AML-90 light tanks, RES. EBR 90 armored cars, TRM-10000 LOG heavy supply trucks, M201 jeeps including command version, CERBERE twin 20mm guns and CROTALE SAM systems, and ECUREUIL, ALOUETTE SS-11, and ALOUETTE II PC rotorcraft. The French Armée de l’Air can scramble not only ALPHA JET E in support but also older FOUGA MAGISTER. French Aéronavale Naval Aviation brings even more air power to bear with older CRUSADER fighters and SUPER ETENDARD strike fighters.
[h2]76th Guards Airborne Division[/h2]
The daring Warsaw Pact’s Soviet 76th Guards Airborne Division counts on a high proportion of its troops going to battle with light but advanced equipment. The VDV fighting forces are made up of BMD-borne DESANTNIKI and large DESANT. USILENNIE combined squads, with the brand-new BMD-3 acting as a light airborne tank. Other new units include DESANT. LuAZ SNAB. and DESANT. GAZ-66B SNAB supply trucks, the DESANT. LuAZ-967M KOM. command unit, LuAZ 2F62 ZENITCHIK AA unit and DESANT. GAZ-66B ZU-23-2 with its twin guns. Recon is provided by SCHMEL-1 unarmed UAVs, elite DESANT. SPETSRAZVEDKA scouts supported in the field by RAZV. BTR-D. The Soviet Air Forces provide long-range aviation support in the form of newly equipped SU-24M, including one variant with thermobaric bombs, and MIG-31 fighter.
[h2]Reinforcement Pack #3 - Stoneware[/h2]
That’s not all. We’re also featuring the new, free to all owners of WARNO, Reinforcement Pack #3 - Stoneware. This mini-pack brings the brand-new quarry-filled battlefield, Stoneware.
https://store.steampowered.com/app/3309840/WARNO__Reinforcement_Pack_3__Stoneware/
Inspired by the larger Ruhr region in West Germany, the new map features a multi-layered topography with a mix of rugged terrain, elevated mountains, and expansive flatlands. Stoneware contains new quarry assets with noticeable height differences, which require creative tactical thinking from any WARNO commander.
[h2]Until Next Time[/h2]
That’s it for this surprise announcement. We’ll be back very shortly with another NORTHAG preview, taking a look at the first Operation: Running the Gauntlet.

[h3]Pact forces[/h3]
[h3]Army General only[/h3]
- New French infantry units armed with AA-52 light machine-gun display it as "AA-52 x2" despite them being single. It is only a localization issue: the unit, in model or gameplay, has only one LMG. It was spotted too late for this version and we deemed it wasn't reason enough to build another version and delay this release possibly up to next Monday.
[h3]Code fixes[/h3]
- Resolved an issue where the feedback Fire on Position would disappear after reloading a save.
- Fixed the end of game screen in Army General not always showing up
- Fixed artillery units not always firing after aligning

Four Days to Weser Army General Preview
Hello, hello, hello!
We return with another NORTHAG-flavored DevBlog. In today’s post, we’ll focus on the first of the two new Army General campaigns to be featured in our upcoming major expansion.
Let’s go explore Four Days to the Weser campaign!
[h2]NORTHAG’s Army General Campaigns[/h2]
The NORTHAG expansion will feature two new massive turn-based Army General campaigns. Both are centered on the NORTHAG command, detailing two new powerful Warsaw Pact thrusts into NATO-controlled territory.
The northern offensive is aimed at Bremen and sees the East Germans strike through a (still) mobilizing Dutch I Corps around the Lüneburg area. This campaign is called Four Days to the Weser, and preview it in more depth below.
The southern strike is around Hanover, and it is here that the communists run into trouble early on, giving the reinforcing British time to bring up heavy tank reinforcements. This, in turn, sees the hasty deployment of some additional mechanized Polish units. The name for this Army General campaign is Armored Fury and will be detailed in a future DevBlog.
[h2]NORTHAG’s Historical Context[/h2]
NATO’s NORTHAG command, as we already mentioned a couple of times, was the cobbling together of four different NATO corps from four different nations, all under unified British command. From the south to the north, these were the Belgians, British, Dutch, and West German, backed up by some additional pre-positioned American forces.
Glancing at the numbers and equipment on paper, it looked like a very strong command, but in reality, NORTHAG was closer to an idol made with feet of clay. Made up of many different national armies, political pressures from various governments and conflicting policies were rife. For instance, the Belgian Army’s outdated equipment, the Dutch questionable decision to keep the majority of its troops home to be “mobilized” in case of war, lack of standardization, etc., were all issues identified by the 1980s.
While the Americans believed Fulda to be the most likely flashpoint and invasion route of World War III in West Germany (due to the proximity of a whole bunch of military and civilian infrastructure in the Frankfurt/Middle Rhine area), the terrain was not very favorable to large-scale maneuvers. The Soviet High Command, seeing the benefit of keeping (at least some) of NATO’s attention fixed, was all too happy to oblige and play their part in a maskirovka deception to fix substantial CENTAG forces in this sector. Meanwhile, the North German Plain, essentially the whole of NORTHAG, was perfect for massive mechanized warfare. Furthermore, the disparaged multinational forces were perceived to be a key weakness, more fragile, and prone to break if enough pressure was brought to bear.
[h2]The War Front[/h2]
In our war scenario, which you already should be familiar with thanks to WARNO’s base game’s CENTAG Army General campaigns, the Warsaw Pact first launches several strong offensive thrusts across the Inner German Border, including Fulda. However, these are diversionary attacks. The sole Soviet 8th Guards Army is in the lead here, flanked and followed by an array of East German forces. Frankfurt was to be threatened or captured if possible, but seizing it wasn’t mandatory. The primary purpose of this offensive was to fix the American and West German attention (and troops) as much as possible.
Further north, the Soviet 1st Guards Tank Army quickly attacked west; its path mostly opened in the initial covert ops raid at Kassel Airport. This thrust was aimed at NORTHAG’s soft underbelly: the 1st Belgian Corps. In the meantime, further up north, the rest of NORTHAG was bracing itself but eerily quiet, apart from artillery duels, small-scale attacks, and airstrikes. This wouldn’t last long.
[h2]NORTHAG Under Pressure[/h2]
So, with the Belgian I Corps under pressure from the whole of the Soviet 1st Guards Tank Army, NORTHAG was forced to react. The British I Corps diverted its 3rd Armoured Division, and the West Germans its 7. Panzerdivision to the south. This also had the dangerous effect of forcing the rest of NATO’s divisions to shift their front or relocate to fill the gaps.
This was, of course, the moment the Warsaw Pact had waited for. The northern communist army groups started their two main attacks on NORTHAG on June 23rd, 72 hours into World War III.
The northern one is an East German-led on the Lüneburg-Bremen axis, while the southern one is on the Hanover-Osnabrück axis (as mentioned briefly before). Let’s detail Four Days to the Weser (the northern attack) a bit more.
[previewyoutube](insérer vidéo d'intro)[/previewyoutube]
[h2]Four Days to the Weser AG Campaign Preview[/h2]
This new Army General campaign takes place in the Lüneburg area, south of Hamburg. The Hanseatic city, although visible on the northern edges of the map, won’t be part of the campaign. It is situated across the unpassable river Elba and is part of NATO’s LANDJUT’s theater of operations.
In our new Army General campaign, which is I Dutch Corp’s area of responsibility, the Covering Force Area, a part of West Germany jutting into East Germany, has already been evacuated following pre-war plans. Surrounded on three sides by communist territory, it would have been complicated to defend this death trap. This shortening of NATO’s defensive lines allowed Warsaw Pact troops to cross the Elbe and advance on Lüneburg in force and relatively unmolested. The East German objective is to continue to attack and cross the Weser River near Hamburg within four days before NATO can muster enough reinforcements to mount a concerted defense on this natural obstacle.

[h2]Opposing Forces[/h2]
The Four Days to the Weser offensive has been entrusted to the East German 5. Armee, operating independently (unlike the 3. Armee against CENTAG’s armies). This army is made up of the 8. and 19. Motorisierte Schützendivision, the elite and well-equipped 9. Panzerdivision (featured as a playable division) and the 20. Motorisierte Schützendivision, which is a partially mobilized division with T-72s in its tank regiment. These Nationale Volksarmee formations are backed by a host of smaller detachments, including two powerful Soviet independent tank regiments equipped with T-64B main battle tanks.
Opposing the communists is a verifiable Tower of Battle of NATO forces: chiefly the West German 3. Panzerdivision and the Dutch 41 Pantserbrigade, the lone Dutch formation actually stationed in West Germany. Additional support comes from the US Army’s 2nd Armored Division’s 3rd Brigade (Forward), pre-deployed in the area. The main forces of the Dutch I Corps (1ste and 4e Divisie) were supposed to be at their pre-arranged combat positions within 48 hours, being transported from the Netherlands. However, in the chaos of war, including major transportation issues, strikes on critical infrastructure, and a sumptuous sprinkling of Soviet Spetsnaz sabotage and raid actions in the rear, have clearly derailed this overly optimistic Dutch mobilization plan.
NATO has the objective of holding the East Germans at bay long enough for the Dutch main reinforcements to (finally) show up. Then, it's either stabilizing a defense or, ideally, counter-attack when the opportunity arises. For the Warsaw Pact, the war goal is simple: break through the enemy defenses as soon as possible and seize the objective across the Weser before the offensive stalls.
[h2]The new WARNO - NORTHAG expansion[/h2] WARNO - NORTHAG is the first major expansion coming to WARNO. World War III hits the North German Plain where the attacking Warsaw Pact needs to overcome the staunch defenses of NATO’s NORTHAG. Under British command, Belgian, Dutch, West German, and American forces battle against the powerful northern formations of the Soviet Group of Forces in Germany, including East German and reinforcing Polish armies. The expansion is planned for later in 2024.
