Wars Across The World News

Battle of the Coral Sea Anniversary

Coral Sea 1942 covers the May 1942 Japanese invasion attempt of Port Moresby, New Guinea, and the air and naval campaigns around it. The Japanese forces must capture Port Moresby and establish bases in the Solomon islands, but their offensive could be well stopped by the Allies naval and air forces. The American and Australian have to prevent the Japanese from achieving their objectives, without losing too much of their meagre resources.

Find out about it in a WAW DLC scheduled to release on May 21st.

And for those Pacific War enthusiasts who love deeper and more detail simulation, please check the Store page below with our sister company Avalon Digital's new game, Carrier Battles and wishlist it if you like it.

Minor Spring Update

In anticipation to this month's release (Caesar 58, coming on April 30th)

*** IMPROVEMENTS ***
  • (Retreat) When several regions are possible, the game now selects the one that would cause the minimum amount of unit destructions (because of units that cannot follow the others or of overstacking in difficult regions).
  • (Retreat) Attacking Sea stacks can now retreat to a port if they just get out of
  • (Retreat) Units that cannot retreat using the locomotion type between battle region and chosen retreat region are now destroyed
  • (Fortress Assaults) Assaulting a weakly defended fortress no longer wrongly gives combat factor bonus to the attacker and malus to the defender. It's set to zero on both sides.
  • (Replacements) Improved realism : replacements are no longer possible for air and sea units that are not inside a structure or a transporter. It is now possible to assign replacements to units that are currently inside transport units.


*** FIXES ***
  • (Reinforcement) Fixed bug where cards supposed to rebuild destroyed units had not effects

Release of Nordwind 1945



Nordwind 1945 accounts the last German offensive in the west. The Germans have entered Alsace from the north and are trying to reach the center of the Vosges mountains at Saverne, pushing back American and French forces. Final goal is Strasbourg.

Can you reclaim the region for the Reich? Or, as the Allies, can you contain and then repulse the last onslaught in the West?

Minor Update - Frame Rate optimization

** IMPROVEMENTS **
- (Graphics) Added options setting to enable VSync
- (Graphics) If VSync is disabled, the target frame rate for the game is set to 60. Previously, the game would run at maximum allowed FPS, which would be unnecessary on powerful configurations.

NB: activating Vsync reduces visual artifacts (screen tearing) but may slightly reduce game reactivity. This could be problematic on older machines or those with little RAM.
