Strategic Mind: Blitzkrieg announcement trailer

Today, we proudly announce our new game Strategic Mind: Blitzkrieg, which we consider a spiritual successor to Panzer Strategy. It will cover the German campaigns from 1938 to 1944 with the majority of operations being historical and several alternate history ones in one twenty-operations-long campaign.
The game will be based on Strategic Mind series mechanics, but unlike “The Pacific” it will feature mostly land operations and lots of new units, content, and features.

The work on Strategic Mind: Blitzkrieg is going full steam since October, and some preliminary work was being done before that. So, we already have made very significant progress and expect to deliver the game in Spring 2020. We work hard to make further quality improvements to the series to make sure you can enjoy the immersive, smart and challenging game this spring.

For all the “Panzer Strategy: Blitzkrieg” owners we plan to make to special discount (details will be revealed a few weeks before launch date). Here you can find a detailed comparison of these two projects:

Our team wishes you all a great 2020 year!

Ship parts mechanic in Strategic Mind: The Pacific

Naval units have a more elaborate mechanics compared to Ground or Air forces. On the picture, you can see various ship parts of the Yorktown class carrier: 127 mm L38 Mk30 Dual-purpose gun, 20 mm Oerlikon Anti-Aircraft gun, Flight deck, Engine, Radar, etc. Most of them have HP indicated by a green bar and a number in the bottom right corner.

The less HP has a gun the lower damage it would deal upon firing.

If the Engine has 50% HP or less, the Move points of the ship are halved and if the Engine has 0 HP than the ship has 0 Move points. The number of Move points are added to all ship defenses at all times. Thus by damaging the Engine, you reduce ship defenses and increase the effectiveness of your next attacks.

The flight deck is another interesting ship part. It allows carrier-based Aircraft to land and take-off from the carrier. If it has 0 HP, Aircraft can no longer take off and land.

Every ship has a Maintenance unit which restores a number (depends on ship class) of HP to damaged ship parts at the end of every turn. However, the Hull cannot be repaired during the operations, and it is automatically restored between the operations.

Each ship also has an Emergency repair team, which can be used only a few times during each operation to fully restore chosen ship part.

Stay tuned to learn more about the game mechanics and features in the next updates.

The Early Access starts on April 30.

USA campaign in Strategic Mind: The Pacific

In the USA campaign, the player assumes the role of the newly appointed Commander in Chief Pacific Fleet ― Admiral Chester William Nimitz. He is to turn the tide of war in the Pacific.

During the Early Access period, the first three operations of the USA campaign will be available featuring epochal naval battles between the United States of America and the Empire of Japan, such as the Battle of the Coral Sea, the Battle of Midway and the Battle of Guadalcanal.

Try for yourself the role of the saviour of the US, and remember, Chester Nimitz did not have the save/load option to help him out. ;)
