It’s only lightly annotated, showing you how to buy stuff on the conference screen, and then you’re off to play the scenarios. The six tutorial scenarios are followed by the Tutorial Campaign. By the time you’re done with all six, I assure you that even the grizzled veterans of the vanilla, tutorial-impaired UoC II will have learned a trick or two. Don’t worry if this sounds a bit pedestrian: the second tutorial already shows you the finer details of setting up your supply network. We are starting off real easy in this one, taking the time to introduce the very basics of movement and combat, how to undo, what are hexes, the fog of war, etc. I am not saying the new tutorial is perfect, but I assure you there is a world of difference. What is intuitive, and what needs explaining… all of that was a bit of a mystery to us back then. What is obvious, and what needs to be pointed out. We didn’t know how the players will react to all the new mechanics. Everything about the game was new to us at the time. In its defense, it was cobbled together in a few hurried days leading up the game’s release and never given the attention it deserves. The original UoC II tutorial was never a fan favorite, and rightly so. New original music: 4 brand new tracks by Bruno Babić, composed specifically for Barbarossa DLC.New terrain type: bog, used to model the impenetrable, swampy terrain facing Army Group North and the Finns.New German cards: Blitzkrieg (reloads HQ command points) and Luftflotte.Beautiful new vehicle models including BT-7 and T-26 tanks, and the iconic ZIS-5 truck.20+ new unit types including those from Italy, Romania, Hungary, Slovakia, Finland, and Spain.Detailed, zoomed-in maps for the hard-fought sieges of Odessa and Sevastopol.Limited, but still difficult to achieve, alternative historical outcomes, such as capturing Moscow in late 1941.23-scenario historical campaign, with battles from the lakes of Karelia in the north to the Black Sea beaches in the south.You command Axis forces, from the initial invasion all the way to the Battle for Moscow in late 1941. The main attraction here is the completely overhauled tutorial, but there are a few other features and bug fixes too.įirst, a quick recap for the Barbarossa DLC: the release date is April 21, and the price is $9.99. We are releasing the companion update to the Barbarossa DLC (Update 15) today, one day ahead of the DLC release itself.
