Description
Happy 250th Birthday, America! Today, we're celebrating the Fourth of July alongside some massive news updates in the strategy and wargaming space.
First up, the controversial saga of Veterans: Napoleonic Wars continues. The game, which drew heavy scrutiny for its eerie similarities to Ultimate General: Civil War, was recently delisted following a DMCA claim. Now, the game has reappeared on Steam but without its demo or a concrete launch date. The developers admit the legal situation hasn't been fully resolved yet, so we're diving into what this means for the title's future.
Next, we shift gears to War Footing, a new and highly anticipated army management wargame. Instead of commanding troops on the tactical battlefield, you are in charge of building the military itself. From equipping units and selecting doctrines to preparing your entire nation for conflict, your army's performance in the looming war will be directly tied to how intelligently you manage your forces before the first shot is even fired.
