Wargame: Red Dragon is a real-time strategyvideo game developed by Eugen Systems and published by Focus Home Interactive, released on April 17, 2014. It is the sequel to the 2013 Wargame: AirLand Battle.

Gameplay[edit]

Wargame: Red Dragon includes 21 nations and over 1,900 units to play with. The game is set in East Asia during an alternate historyCold War where the Soviet Union doesn't collapse and featuring five new Asia Pacific factions: China, North Korea, South Korea, Japan and the ANZAC. The battlefield is viewed from a top-down perspective, giving the player an overview of the action. The player can decide which units they want to deploy before a battle, creating a deck of specific individual units. The player can choose from infantry, various forms of armored units, air forces, and naval forces, with further customization available, e.g. choosing between infantry with anti-aircraft or anti-armor capabilities, or whether to deploy air-superiority aircraft or ones suited for supporting ground forces. The opposing sides will typically start on opposite sides of the battlefield, with both parties being awarded an initial amount of deployment points that determine how many units they can spawn at the start of the battle. Units in the game have several attributes such as their amount of fuel or ammunition; If a unit runs out of fuel or ammunition, it will be unable to move or shoot, respectively. Players can manage these attributes by deploying supply units which repair and re-arm units. Units also have morale which can degrade under heavy attack, reducing the unit's combat effectiveness and potentially causing it to rout, leaving it unresponsive to player commands.

Following initial deployment, players must gradually hold and secure additional designated zones on the map by deploying special command units and supporting forces to them. Holding these zones awards the player with additional deployment points over time, allowing them to bring in additional units during the course of a battle. Any units ordered during the battle will arrive from a specific command point; a deployment zone typically located on the edge of the map from which units ordered will enter the battle. If such a point is lost, the player will be unable to call in reinforcements until it is re-secured. They will lose the game if they possess no units with which to capture a deployment zone. Other ways of losing include running out of units and having fewer points than the enemy at the end of the battle.

Downloadable Content (DLC)[edit]

The game features both free and paid DLC. The first three free DLCs add a number of multi-player maps as well as units to existing factions, while the paid DLC adds entirely new playable nations.

As of May 20, 2016, the Armed Forces of the Netherlands became a downloadable playable faction for the game. Unique Dutch vehicles such as the DAF YP-408 and the DAF YP-104, as well as a mix of British, French, German and American units licensed for Dutch use.[1]

On June 23, 2016, Eugen Systems announced that the Israeli Defense Forces would become the second downloadable faction for the game. Unique Israeli Army equipment, most notably the Merkava series of tanks, are now available in game, alongside many other Israeli units.[2]

With the announcement of the Israeli army DLC, Eugen also announced the ongoing work of a third DLC called Double Nation Pack: REDS, this time introducing Yugoslavia and Finland into the game as USSR allies.[2] This DLC includes 186 new units and was released on December 1, 2016.[3]

I love Eugen Systems' Wargame series. You too love Eugen Systems' Wargame series, right? The joyous tactical combined arms strategy series remains the quiet achiever in the modern RTS space. It's been six years since Harold Coyle and Ralph Peters fans wept with joy when European Escalation made dreams come true, and we're closing in on the second anniversary of the third in Red Dragon. What better way to celebrate than with a Dutch Treat?!

Announced earlier, the Nations Pack: Netherlands is the first of the series' paid DLC.

Since the early days of the Wargame saga, forums as well our private message boxes have been filled with petitions, complaints even, about 'missing' nations. Based on so many community requests, we have decided to give 'Nation Pack(s)' a try.

For the first Nation Pack, we have selected the lucky winner: the Netherlands. The reason being that this nation is powerful enough to stand on its own among the 'medium' nations, and fields both indigenous vehicles and an original combination of American, German & French equipments.

For the first Nation Pack, we have selected the lucky winner: the Netherlands. The reason being that this nation is powerful enough to stand on its own among the 'medium' nations, and fields both indigenous vehicles and an original combination of American, German & French equipments.

Yet, unlike the previous DLCs, Nation Pack would be paid one, although players without it would be able to play against (or allied with) players owning it, in order not to split the community. So far, we have been delivering three major DLCs as well as three Map Packs since the game's release, all of them free. Such Nation Pack would give us the means to finance ongoing support to the Red Dragon and make sure that further balance patches and content will keep coming.

And should the Nation Pack concept be validated, it will pave the way for more nations, which we will let the community chose. Who knows, maybe Finland might show up inWargame one day?

Wargame Red Dragon Mod

The post-release support the Wargame series has received is nothing short of stellar, so to finally have the entirely optional, uh, option to drop a few farthings on DLC shouldn't be an issue for anyone. As community manager MadMat states, the Netherlands DLC is a sort of test-bed to measure the viability of such packs. If found to be successful, it'll pave the way for an expanded roster of nations and general support. And, of course, I'll be *this* much closer to seeing my SADF Recces realised in full.

Wargame Red Dragon Gameplay

The Netherlands DLC is now available for purchase. If you haven't already picked yourself up a currently discounted Wargame: Red Dragon, go and do it, because it's magic, in that massed military materiel kind of way.
