! CLOSED BETA IS A GO !
! OVER >>1450<< FAITHFULLY-REPRODUCED UNITS
!
! AIR LAND SEA TACTICAL COMBAT !
! UP TO 20-PLAYER MP MATCHES !
! TOTAL WAR STYLE SP CAMPAIGN !

Wargame Red Dragon is the 3rd title in the spectacular Wargame series of real-time strategy games created by Eugen Systems. The series quickly became a new reference point in the RTS genre, beginning with European Escalation, and then its direct sequel, AirLand Battle.

Wargame Red Dragon retains the same core game mechanics that have made the series so successful, but the action leaves Europe for the first time and moves to a conflict in Asia between 1975 and 1991.

Wargame Red Dragon once again stretches the limits of the RTS genre, including: dynamic and tense gameplay that demands strategic vision and depth; a spectacular and realistic visual experience; new features such as the warships and maritime units; a perfected dynamic campaign system and much more.​

Release date ~March/April.

Even though Eugen Systems is a small studio they are bro as fuck: they release free DLCs (known simply as "content patches" in the better times), balance patches and they generally listen to community.

Will the North Korean army be accurately represented as the world's premier fighting force? :salute:
(South) Koreans are crying right now on the forums that North got some units which they, in fact, have never fielded, such as:

T-fucking-90S

and T-72S

Meaning: yes, Best Korea is overpowered as shit at the moment.

Yeah, Wargame matches unfortunatelly take a lot of time, especially those most silly/entertaining like 10v10 Total Destruction.

Finished the WG:AB BRO-op campaign with my dad a few days ago. Proper father-son bonding includes killing potato with massed artillery. Will be getting us a RD double-bundle on day1 :bounce:

That's hardcore, bro. I couldn't stand the campaign, never played it for more than 10 minutes. For me, the AI is so pants-on-head retarded and is cheating so blatantly that all enjoyment instantly withers away. Never seen the point of playing SP when the much better MP is three clicks away.

My old man is not one for playing vs humans outside of WoT. It's as good an excuse as any to spend time with him

In what state are the non-single player nations at the moment? Balance, number of units, etc...?

Especially (West)-Germany.
Eugen had focused on new nations, though old ones were modified a little as well, mostly by having some new units added or having the old ones retouched. There is a lot of rebalancing done in general, a lot of new mechanics, some of the old ones getting replaced as well. On top of that, there is the whole new AirSea Battle aspect added to the game. Hence, it is very difficult to compare RD's FRG to ALB's one.

My West Germany folder has 17 files, here's a sample of what's coming:

Yep, that's a Leo 2a5. Eugen gave their imagination free rein. :smug: They properly pop all kinds of military porn boners alright.

Nice! I'd Brofist your post if I could, but that feature is only available to senior posters. So please let me express my gratitude orally verbally! :hug:

What ya mean imagination? Leopard 2A5s are a very real thing. :smug:

Yeah, but not in 1992. :smug:

It's why it's a prototype. Without their protos, NATO ground forces would get stomped hardcore by soviet ones in cat A matches.

And from what I hear from a friend, China is currently underpowered in the beta, so the obvious answer for viable cat a china would be to give them their prototypes.

Also, open beta in less than a week for those who preorder. That's the word on the forums.

Shame that deal doesn't extend for an unlimited amount of time. I like the idea of "loyalty" discounts, but can't be arsed to pre-purchase anything these days.

BRO-OP campaign unavailable on release. Same with 10v10. Eugen pls. :(

Yeah, this release is a big let down for me... SP campaign is trash too IMHO, way better than Airland Battle but still skirmish maps with 20 min limit(someone probably release a mod for this one, though this was one of the major complaints in Airland) AI is mostly brain dead and just rush you with all it got wave after wave, sometimes it show little sparkle with flanking manuvuers but thats it. It never attacked my empty sectors...
Strategic map is kinda cool and gives you commander feel, theaters are decent also.

Game crashed on me 4 times yesterday. 2 of them happened while I was saving...

Don't have the game, but it looks awesome. Still, I'm not sure why they won't implement "sandboxy" campaign (something like Total War campaign maps, in example) where you can take any nation and do whatever you want, customizing the game options beforehand(so battles take longer etc.)
Haven't people proposed something like that? That would be actually pretty awesome to conquer half of the world with one of the sides :P Or backstab someone!

Single player always has been meh in the series. The new naval part is a bit pointless...it has no gameplay depth. Pretty much a gimmick.

Also one might call me a conspiracy theorist but I am smell some French bias in Eugen unit balancing. Not sure how else once can explain the Rafale Wunderplane otherwise...:smug:
