8 Days to Release - Douglas A-1 Skyraider The US Attack Aircraft



In the age of the turbojet, Douglas A-1 Skyraider flew as a piston-powered, propeller-driven blast from the past.



With the rapid development of jet aircraft towards the end of the war, dozens, if not hundreds of piston engine aircraft became obsolete. The Skyraider could have joined their lot, but its innovative turbo-compound engine gave it a chance to prove itself - and prove itself it did.



A solid, well-made and innovative at a time, Douglas A-1 would last well into the Vietnam War, only decommissioned in the 1970s. It was an attack aircraft that could shred ground targets with its 20-mm autocannons, carry out tactical bombings (with its payload capacity of 3600 kg) and deliver torpedo strikes equally well.



There is no telling how effective Douglas A-1 would have been in WWII if it were finalized and deployed faster. And in Fight for Freedom, you’ll get to explore that exact possibility.

Ever vigilant, Starni Games Intelligence Service

Victory in Europe Day - Free Demo Update 8 May



[h2]Victory in Europe Day[/h2]

General! We would like to celebrate V-E Day by uploading a new Strategic Mind: Fight for Freedom Demo build for free. So, now everyone can enjoy the game and live through the epochal events, such as the Normandy landings.

We are immensely grateful to all the valiant soldiers who fought in WW2 and brought the World age of peace and prosperity. Now, we can see the horrors of massive conflicts only in games, and we get to choose which games to play. We think there is a lot to be learned about our society and human nature in general by studying the events of WW2 - and what better way of immersing oneself in these events than to become an active participant, even if only in the game.

[h2]The New Demo[/h2]

The new Demo has around 5 hours of gameplay - the first operations of both the UK and the US campaigns. Overall the build runs great and there should not be any serious technical issues. There is some stuff that we still have to iron out, especially in localizations and cinematics, so the most vigilant players may notice some issues, but we are working day and night to correct everything before release, so do not worry - we will do our best to correct all possible shortcomings. In fact, if you notice anything weird - make sure to let us know at our community hub - and we will do our best to fix it asap.

[h2]The Game Release - 21 May[/h2]

The full game will be released on 21 May 2021, so there are only two weeks left. Wishlist Strategic Mind: Fight for Freedom, so that you do not miss its launch.

[h3]📍 Important notes: [/h3]
  • You can use Demo save files when you play the full game. So, you could covert your Demo progress into a full game on its full launch on 21 May.
  • You can post any materials without restrictions.

Units in Fight for Freedom #19 | M45 - The US Assault Gun On a Tank Chassis



The expression “Texas-sized” exists for a reason. Throughout the 20th century, the Americans became known for their taste for massive, bombastic things, and the M45 definitely fit the description. Categorized as an assault gun, the idea was very simple: borrow a 105-mm howitzer from the Sherman’s assault variant and mount it on a heavy tank chassis, the precursor to the Pershing. Tough, low-profile and deadly, the M45 was designed for the European theatre, and was by far the most powerful assault gun to be fielded by the American Allies during WWII.



And like many revolutionary projects, M45 arrived too late. It saw most of its service during the Korean war, where it had no unique niche to fill, and so quickly fell into obsolescence. However, in Strategic Mind: Fight for Freedom, things can go very differently for M45.

[h2]M45 in SM: Fight for Freedom[/h2]

The powerful, mobile and well-armored assault guns that can support your troops on the battlefield and help you deal with enemy’s fortifications. What could be better?
