Strategy and Wargaming News – 12th July 2025- Slitherine Next, Broken Arrow DLC, Combat Mission 3
At the Slitherine Next event last Thursday, the game Battleplan was introduced, piquing my interest significantly. If you’ve played Hearts of Iron IV, you might recognize the concept: draw your frontline and battle plans, then let the AI execute them in real-time. It seems like a unique blend of command, detailed rosters, accurate geography, and companies as the fundamental game unit – something I haven’t come across outside of Wargame Design Studios titles. I’m eager to see how it develops, so I’ll be monitoring its progress until release. Definitely expect a review from me!
