  • Thanks to Slitherine for giving us a world-first look at the game. We had a great fun in the stream, which will be uploaded in its whole to the second channel soon! Happy birthday!
    It's honestly just great fun to play an RTS again. It's been so long since the last good one. I think with a few changes to the balancing (some of which we did ourselves) this game could really be a stand out.

    DEFCON: this is a tragedy that is to be avoided.
    ICBM: but it’s a tragedy that you’re going to win.

      This game has realistic nuke speeds.

      In DEFCON they travel slightly faster than an airplane.
