Tribute to the Liberation of Italy Update
Hello commander!
We hope you are doing well. Once again, this week’s post will be a bit leaner on the bone. Our time has been taken up as we are very busy rolling out a new expansion for Steel Division 2’s Cold War cousin and that other strategy title in Eugen’s stable: Wargame: Red Dragon. We are putting the finishing touches on Nation Pack - South Africa, coming this September 30th, and as such, we’ll keep today’s post short.
That doesn’t mean we are going to leave you empty-handed!
[h2]Showing off some new models[/h2]
We are making good speed on Tribute to the Liberation of Italy, the next expansion coming to Steel Division 2.

In our previous post, we already shared some images for several new 3D infantry models. Today, take a sneak peek at two new series of models: the Japanese-American Nisei (above) and the Brazillian expeditionary soldiers (below). Note that the Brazilian Expeditionary Corps, unlike the US Army in World War II, was not segregated. This means you’ll find some black Brazilian troopers as part of the new Task Force 45 battlegroup.

[h2]Upcoming tweaks and updates[/h2]
We talked about it before, but we are also preparing a new patch for Steel Division 2, to be released in the near future. Currently, there are a couple of things on our plate.
One: we are looking at lessening the overperformance of fighter-bombers compared to other planes. We are working on a solution, so more details on the actual gameplay changes are still up in the air.
Some other patch elements:
This is not all. More changes, updates, and fixes are being worked on as we speak.
[h2]Feature your name in Steel Division 2[/h2]
At Eugen, we have an old tradition of featuring the surnames of our players and community on a random list of platoon and tank commander names. You know, the guys you love to highlight at the post-match screen when a single Soviet platoon with an anti-tank rifle manages to stop a whole armored Axis column (for instance).

The time has come for us to open the enlistment rolls for our upcoming new Tribute to the Liberation of Italy nations. We are going to be gathering surnames for South Africa, Italy (a common list for both Allied and fascist), Brazil, and India (Pakistani and Indian names, as the battlegroup historically recruited on the border of these two modern states plus Nepalese for Gurkhas).
To make it crystal clear: all names will be picked randomly from a nation’s list. We CANNOT attribute a name to a specific unit. This might mean Sikh soldiers may end up with a Nepalese name and Gurkhas with a Pakistani one.

Some other patch elements:
- Molotov Cocktails will be reduced in their performance.
- Overall balance pass on unit prices of assault guns and fire support tanks.
- Overall balance pass on unit prices of tank destroyers.
- Improving the AI on the Tannenberg map.
- A new “Mediterranean Front” lobby filter for multiplayer games (much like the existing “Eastern Front” or “Western Front” filters). This will restrict the battlegroup selection to the four divisions from Nemesis: Battle of Rimini and Nemesis: Storming Toulon, as well as the soon-to-be-included battlegroups from Tribute to the Liberation of Italy expansion.
- A fix that prevents winning the Army General Orsha campaign as the Germans by moving just one battalion around the AI’s position.
- A fix to unlock the Soviet achievement “Fate of a Nation,” featured in the Steel Division: The Fate of Finland expansion.
This is not all. More changes, updates, and fixes are being worked on as we speak.
