[h3] See you at the Italian Front! [/h3]

Soldiers!

It’s time to put your strengths together and fight a shared enemy. On this cold front, the icy and winter weather has made it hard to survive, but not only for you. The wolves are hungry, and you all seem like the perfect meal…

[h2] Winner winner, wolf’s dinner [/h2]

The annual Wolf Truce has returned to Tannenberg! Starting today, October 18th, until November 1st you can participate in this unique Tannenberg event. When you hear the wolves howl on the battlefields*, the wolf pack will soon charge in to make their attack on you and your enemy. Both sides of the battlefield have the opportunity to cease fire and fight the hungry wolves together. If everyone is able to eliminate the pack of hungry beasts without hurting anyone on the opposing team, you’ll all earn a special medal.

*These events randomly trigger on snowy maps



[h2] Historical background [/h2]

During the third winter in 1917 of the Great War, the region between the Baltic Sea and the Black Sea was the battlefield for the German and Russian Armies. Having to fight each other often in brutal conditions and harsh environments resulted in negative effects on the soldiers’ supply lines, leading to some serious food shortages.



However, the soldiers weren’t the only ones who were hungry. The wolves who were native to the region faced an increased difficulty in hunting their normal prey. They already started feasting on the livestock in nearby villages, but it wasn’t enough to quell their hunger.



The wolf attacks might at one point have been so fearsome that the German and Russian troops called a temporary cease-fire toward each other and formed a brief alliance to jointly fight the lupine threat (although reports do come from US newspapers, so take them with a pinch of salt).

[h2] Price-hungry wolves [/h2]

Seems like the wolves started to nibble on some things here in the Steam store. Tannenberg will be on sale later today with a 75% discount (7pm CEST)! Join the Eastern Front and save yourself (and your enemies) from becoming dinner.

Today marks the anniversary of the WW1GameSeries, as today Verdun went into Early Access 10 years ago!

We want to thank all our soldiers who have joined the fronts over the years. Did you make your way from the Western Front, towards the Eastern one and ended up high in the mountains in Isonzo?
Or are you a new recruit who recently joined any of the fronts?

No matter what, we thank you for playing our games!

Here are some fun facts for each games, that you might not know.

• The first ideas and concepts for Verdun were made back in August 2006, 17 years ago!
  
• For Tannenberg, the team considered for a long time to make a Cossacks soldier the main promo banner character
  
• Isonzo's well beloved OST 'Rinascereme Insieme' wasn't planned at the beginning, but more a place holder song. It really grew on the team and they decided to make it into a full song that you now know and love today
  
• Combined, the games have 29 maps. Here they are from west to east, north to south:
  
• Flanders, Artois, Picardie, Aisne, Champagne, Argonne, Vauquois, Douaumont, st. Mihiel, Vosges, Cengio, Fior, Dolomiti, Piana, Grappa, Piave, Caporetto, Sabotino, Gorizia, Carso, Baltic, East Prussia, Galicia, Poland, Carpathians, Prsemysl, Ukraine, Roumania, Dobrudja
