Welcome back, commander.
Hold the presses; the results are in!
Before we reveal the winner of the Nemesis DLC Run 5, we wanted to express our admiration for the hard-fought propaganda many of you dabbled in this last week. Your efforts to sway your fellow players clearly had some effect; this vote was a very close call all the way to the end.
[h2]The winner is...[/h2]
And the winner of Nemesis DLC Run 5 is…
...Nemesis: Raid on Drvar!
Our fifth Nemesis DLC will take the action to the partisan-controlled Balkans, highlighting the unique Raid on Drvar which saw one of the last Axis airborne operations of the war and the subsequent Allied attempt to escape the surprise trap.
To give you the full breakdown of the vote:

[h2]What happens next?[/h2]
At one point, further down the line, the Nemesis: Raid on Drvar will join the other paid Nemesis DLC already on offer or in active development. We will keep you updated!
What happens to the Nemesis DLC Run 5 options that didn’t make the cut? For now, we will put them away in our “ideas” Eugen cupboard. Maybe they will make a return in the future. For now, these Nemesis options have been judged and found wanting…Never say never, though!
[h2]Coming up next[/h2]
That’s it for this week. Let us know what you think! You can do this through our Steam forums and Eugen forums, or check our (Facebook and Twitter). Looking for an online game? Visit the kick-assDiscord server or Reddit page.
We have something special in store for our Wargame fans. Wha-wait-what? That’s right: expect some exciting news in the not-too-distant future!

We’ll give today’s victor another detailed look. Nemesis: Raid on Dvrar will feature:
Unternehmen Rösselsprung
- The Axis battlegroup is modeled after the real-life forces that participated in the operation, and as such, carries the name of the operation. It includes not only the fanatical SS-Fallschirmjäger-Bataillon 500, but also regular Grenadier foot soldiers, as well as supporting troops from the SS Prinz Eugen's SS-Gebirgsjäger and the Independent State of Croatia (NDH), a puppet state of Nazi Germany.
- A small number of Brandenburg special forces can be found in this battlegroup as well. They can count on the Raider trait.
- Croatian Air Force covers the sky above, equipped with a mix of old pre-war Yugoslav Air Force planes and Italian (Caproni bombers, Macchi fighters, ...) or German fighters and bombers.
NOV (Yugoslav Liberation Army)
- NOV stands for Narodnooslobodilačka vojska, meaning the Yugoslav Liberation Army. This communist-led partisan force was considered one of the most effective anti-Axis resistance movements in Europe. NOV troops as a whole feature the Raider trait.
- The partisans are mostly equipped with salvaged Italian small arms, from Beretta SMGs, M91 Moschetto rifles, Breda 30 LMG and Solothurn anti-tank rifles. Airdropped British weapons (Bren, PIAT, and Sten guns) can also be found.
- Heavier equipment all come from captured stocks, such as the German PaK 38 50mm and a handful of PaK 40 75mm AT guns, but mostly Italian Elefantino 47mm guns. Even some armored support is available in the form of light L3/35 Italian tankettes and captured German Beute (R-35 & Somua).
- Allied air support from the British-led multinational Balkan Air Force consists of older Spitfire, Mustang and Hurricane fighter, fighter-bomber or tank-buster variants, including the Hurricane Mk.IID with twin 40mm AT guns.
