Tannenberg News

Hello soldiers,
As the anniversary of the start of the Great War nears, combined with release anniversaries for our game series, we've enabled the Film Memoir mode for you all for free starting today, July 21st until the 28th! This option is normally included in the supporter edition, but now you can all experience the Eastern Front in a different setting!

On top of that, Verdun and Tannenberg are both on sale, so if you haven't fought on the Western Front yet, now's a great time to try it out:

[h3]If you hadn't heard, our Italian Front game Isonzo has got a release date: September 13th, 2022! [/h3]
A lot has been happening on the Italian Front as Isonzo gets closer to release, and we've been chronicling the development with a series of blogs over on the Isonzo Steam Hub!

[h2]The Engineer Class and Construction System[/h2]
One of the new features in Isonzo is the freebuilding construction available to certain classes - in particular the Engineer. Lay down sandbags and barbed wire to fortify your positions or try and establish some cover for attacking allies. Full blog post here!

[h2]Officer Call-ins - Artillery, Gas, and Aviation[/h2]
In Isonzo the Officer class has access to three areas of support, which are targeted on flares fired by Officers or Mountaineers. Each type of support has a separate cooldown, and you can use weaker call-ins more frequently, or wait to deploy the most powerful abilities. Read more about artillery, gas, and aviation.

[h2]Marines at War - Eastern Front[/h2]
While US Marines were fighting to recapture Belleau Wood from German forces on the Western Front, Russia was no longer playing a part in the First World War following the Treaty of Brest-Litovsk. Even while Russia was still fighting, Russian marines would not play a major part in the war. It was late 1916 by the time any dedicated marine divisions were formed, and these mostly conducted defensive operations by the Baltic Sea against the Germans and around the Caspian Sea against Ottoman forces.

This is a stark contrast to the Second World War, where the Soviet Union would raise so many naval infantry units that around 350,000 sailors would take part in land battles.

[h2]Marines at War in-game[/h2]
Our latest campaign event will run until June 27.
All casualties in Frontlines and Maneuver game modes in Verdun and Tannenberg will be added to the total losses, and the winning side will be whoever suffers the least killed and wounded. Too many First World War battles essentially became meatgrinders (or were even conceived as such from the start) and so it is for our campaigns.
